XIXA are a unique quartet from Tuscon, Arizona who have started to expand on their psychedelic roots by introducing Latin influences to their music. Their new single, ‘Xolo de Galáxia’ is a mystical track that uses well-placed percussion, bright guitar textures and a blend of three harmonious voices to tell the story of a young girl and her canine companion. They expand: “[It’s] a very celebratory song. Praising the wisdom of this Mexican hairless dog that knows the lands of the underworlds and fearlessly guides Arcoiris through them. We have Mona Chambers (whose voice sonically represents Arocoiris through the album) singing with us in the chorus which I think only adds to how grateful she is for the Xolo.” XIXA are releasing their XOLO LP on March 21st, 2025. Keep an eye out for it. -Dan Peeke
