Formed in 1996 and named for the California-Mexico border town, the indie rock band Calexico is returning to New Zealand once more for three shows this February.
Frontmen Joey Burns and John Convertino originated the band, the shows they’re playing a part of their 20th anniversary tour for their original album: ‘Feast of the Wire.’
Joey Burns told Tim Dower that back when they first created the album, they had no idea that it could be an anniversary tour twenty years on.
“We were all so focused on the next project,” he told Dower.
“We don’t often take the time to pause and reflect back and celebrate an album.”
Burns said that it feels really good to reflect back on the album, their lives, and their friendships through the lens of this tour.
