Calexico and Iron & Wine announce ‘Years to Burn’ their first full–length album together, via City Slang. Calexico and Iron & Wine first made an artistic connection with 'In the Reins', the 2005 EP that brought Sam Beam, Joey Burns and John Convertino together. The collaboration introduced both acts to wider audiences and broadened Beam’s artistic horizons, but it was the shared experience of touring together in the tradition of Bob Dylan’s “Rolling Thunder Revue” that cemented the bond. Their metaphorical roads diverged in the years that followed, but they kept in touch and cross-pollinated where they could. Although they often talked about rekindling their collaboration in the studio and on stage, it wasn’t until last year that their schedules aligned.
