Calexico Biography

Calexico is a Tucson, Arizona-based rock band. The band's two main members, Joey Burns and John Convertino, first played together in Los Angeles as part of the group Giant Sand. They have recorded a number of albums on Quarterstick Records, while their 2005 EP In the Reins recorded with Iron & Wine has reached the Billboard 200 album charts. Their musical style is influenced by traditional sounds of mariachi / Tejano music and the Southwestern United States country music, and they have been described by some as indie rock. The band is named for the border town of Calexico, California.
