Calexico released a Christmas album for 2020 called Seasonal Shift. But rather than the typical holiday songs about good tidings and cheer, the band paints a more realistic picture of dysfunctional families, crying over a drink of Mezcal, and holiday meals ruined. 

Vocalist and guitarist Joey Burns talks about the record and how it came together through collaborations with musicians from around the world.
