The album was recorded in Mexico City. The image above is its cover artwork.
In a statement, the band’s Joey Burns says the album “is about pushing through the blue to brighter days. Calexico has always had that element of hope, going back and forth between a positive outlook and embracing desperate or dark themes that I think we all share.”
