Given the band’s Arizona home base, it makes sense that Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers’ sound incorporates touches of mariachi along with some twangy Americana roots. In fact, the band has hosted its own festival in Mexico for years, giving its fans from both sides of the border a chance to party down with a group whose style has allowed them to share stages with everyone from Johnny Cash to Sammy Hagar. Some might remember leader Clyne from his old band the Refreshments, a crew that had some minor ’90s hits and composed the theme song for long-running TV show King of the Hill. The Peacemakers took over where the Refreshments left off, touring like crazy every year to support their seven studio albums to date.
