Calexico unveils trailer for new album

By Alex Young on July 8th, 2008

Not much can top a trailer when it comes to the one/ones released in support of that certain movie set to excite our eyes and ears in just nine days, but the boys behind Calexico are at least giving it a shot. In support of their upcoming album, Carried To Dust, due out on September 9 via Touch and Go Records, the Arizona based band has dropped an official trailer.

The release of the trailer comes just weeks after Calexico not only revealed dates for an extensive world tour, but also proudly announced that its song, “Crystal Frontier”, went up to space. Ya you read it right, Calexico in space!
