CALEXICO – Edge Of The Sun (2022 Reissue) – LP – Translucent Blue Vinyl

LP – Limited Edition Translucent Blue Vinyl. Only 1200 copies pressed in this edition.

For the better part of two decades, the acclaimed band Calexico has crossed musical barriers, embracing a multitude of styles, variety in instrumentation, and well-cultivated signature sounds.

On’Edge of the Sun‘, (City Slang), they take inspiration from a trip to a place surprisingly unexplored by the band before in Mexico City, and with the benefit of many friends and comrades to help guide the way. Encouraged by the experience, the guest list grew to include Ben Bridwell (Band of Horses), Nick Urata (Devotchka), Carla Morrison, Gaby Moreno, Amparo Sanchez, multi-instrumentalists from the Greek band Takim, and Neko Case.

Burns brother John Burns lent a hand to some lyrics and songwriting, and the bands keyboardist, Sergio Mendoza, stepped up to co-write and arrange certain songs, ultimately co-producing the album along with Burns, John Convertino, and longtime associate Craig Schumacher.
