FUV turned Rockwood Music Hall into the "Casa de Calexico" for this special live broadcast. Regular listeners of the station are likely very familiar with Calexico. We often dip into the band's rich catalog of music; Calexico's records are masterful works of sound.

In the 20-plus years that Joey Burns, John Convertino and their bandmates have been making music, they have built up a reputation for their artful musicianship. So, it’s no surprise that their new, ninth album, The Thread That Keeps Us, is another stunning collection of songs.

During this FUV Live set, the band plays a mix of recent songs, and some old favorites too.
