Califone - Stitches

Califone, the experimental Chicago roots-rock band, haven’t released an album since 2009’s All My Friends Are Funeral Singers, but they’re back this fall with a new one called Stitches. For the first time, the band left Chicago to record the LP, hitting various studios around the American southwest instead. (They even recorded in Arizona, home state of Calexico, the band I always confuse Califone with.) The album’s title track is a bummed-out downbeat drone that should sound pretty great on long road trips. Listen to it and check out the album’s tracklist below.

TRACKLIST:
01 “Movie Music Kills A Kiss”
02 “Stitches”
