*** Calexico
*** Twist & Shout In-Store
*** 08.09.08

You could tell that Calexico was on their way into town. Tumbleweeds started rolling up and down Colfax and copious amounts of Tequila were being had at ever turn. Ok, so maybe their weren’t tumbleweeds or Tequila, but that’s what I think of when I think of Calexico. The guys stayed in town an extra day (they played the Triple A Radio Summit the previous night in Boulder) to do an in-store at Twist & Shout. The horn section contributed tremendously and at several moment throughout the performance, I felt like I was back in the mercado in Juarez throwing back a couple of Dos XX. The new album is shaping up to be one of their better offerings and the guys also said that they would be back in Denver in November when they tour their forthcoming album Carried to Dust (to be released Sept. 9th via Touch and Go) properly.

Calexico

I’m sure you guys have already heard the new single from the forthcoming album from Calexico, Carried to Dust, to be released Sept. 9th which you can purchase here. The new album very similar to prior releases with a stronger horn section that brings the Outlaw Josie Wales to life. Here’s even better news, the guys will be doing an in-store here in Denver, August 9th at Twist and Shout . It’s kinda of early, 2:30, but make you plans to be there early.

I’m really surprised they didn’t destruct anything, too bad. Look for the LA foursome to come back to Denver next month.

Devotchka @ Twist and Shout Records March 18th

Write that down.

Devotchka will be performing live at Twist & Shout on March 18th at 6 p.m.!

more info coming soon…In other news, their album A Mad and Faithful Telling is tricky just like any of their albums. I always feel like it’s thematic of the Southwest, however, at times it feels like this gypsy Russian vibe. It doesn’t matter, their hometown hero’s and their album is going to knock’em dead. They’ll be making the rounds at SXSW. Their new album will be available the same day as their in-store performance via Anti and you can purchase it here.
