Southwestern indie-folkies Calexico are constantly redefining themselves. Since its founding members moved from LA to Tucson in 1994, the band has developed an affinity for unique sounds drawn from a library of indigenous instruments. Often getting help from friends such as Neko Case and Iron and Wine, Calexico rock accordions, vibraphones, and marimbas on tunes saturated with shadowy melodies and sun-warmed western dust. The group is quick to shift shape, however, inhabiting styles ranging from minimalist acoustic folk to mariachi to Afro-Peruvian pop. Tonight, Calexico present songs from their latest effort, Carried to Dust.
