Simply lovely.

A moody and atmospheric single from Americana’s finest purveyors; Calexico’s brilliant song writing makes you long for perpetual twilight where everything is indistinct, exciting and mysterious. “Two Silver Trees” is a beautifully understated, swirling, uplifting yet melancholy tune with a gentle but instantly hummable melody. Varied instrumentation gives birth on one hand to little twinkling sounds and on the other, to rich and woody tones - from instruments including piano, glocs, heavy bass and accordion all working in perfect harmony to help bring goose-bumps out on all of your four limbs the instant the track starts. This is Calexico on form and bodes well for their upcoming new album release.
