TexiCali
Behind blistering blues licks, TexiCali doubles as a roadtrip across Grammy winner, Dave Alvin, and Grammy nominee, Jimmie Dale Gilmore’s, beloved home states and the memories within, honoring shared musical influences, friends gone too soon and all they’ve endured along the way. These folk heroes have now evolved their unbreakable bond into a fully-fledged musical and songwriting partnership. They return with TexiCali, a brand new studio album out June 21 via Yep Roc Records.
The eleven tracks on TexiCali double as a roadtrip across Alvin and Gilmore’s beloved home states and the memories within, honoring shared musical influences, friends gone too soon and all they’ve endured along the way. Two of Americana’s most celebrated storytellers, the pair now elevate their partnership from touring to recording to songwriting, with TexiCali incorporating more original work and collaborations than ever before.
Together they reflect on experiences like touring the country via train with Roots On The Rails, working with contemporaries like Terry Allen and Butch Hancock, and formative shows from blues legends like Brownie McGhee at Los Angeles’ Ash Grove (frequented by both Dave and Jimmie, unbeknownst to them at the time).
Forging a remarkable new chapter in “poetic geographical autobiography” (Austin American Statesman), Alvin and Gilmore build on a close-knit partnership that’s already brought them a Billboard #1 blues album, a spotlight on CNN and the friendship of a lifetime.
