Seven years after their last show and 13 years after they came here for the first time, Calexico – whose music sits somewhere on the seam between indie-rock, country, Mexican folk and western music – will appear on Saturday (30.7) for the fourth time at the amazing Vanio Skyline, at the highest point of Ariel Sharon Park, from where it will be possible to see both the band and all of Tel Aviv at the same time. At night. In short, a completely unique experience and highly recommended. There are still left for the show Last tickets You should grab it as soon as possible.
Calexico, formed by veterans of the amazing and underrated alt-country outfit Giant Sand in 1990, is named after the border town between California and Mexico (California + Mexico = Calexico). Since then they managed to release a long series of acclaimed albums, the latest of which is El Mirador, and to collaborate with names like Iron and Wayne, Willie Nelson, Nelson Sinatra and even… Ehud Banai, in their first concert in Israel (at Barbie, August 2009). The last few years, in which the border between Mexico and the US has become an even more charged arena than usual, have also turned them into a more political and edgy band than ever.
The production is signed by Live Nation Israel.
Calexico will perform at Skyline, Ariel Sharon Park on 7/30 (Saturday) 9:00 p.m. 245 NIS. Tickets here
