Calexico’s El Mirador is a vibrant, Latin-influenced 10th album that celebrates the desert borderlands and the band’s Southwestern roots. Recorded in Tucson with longtime collaborator Sergio Mendoza, it blends rock, blues, and Latin sounds with contributions from artists like Gaby Moreno and Jairo Zavala. Both a reflective lookout and hopeful beacon, the album explores themes of connection, memory, and possibility in a borderless world.
