Video: Old Californio – “Chilao”
by Pete
I stumbled upon Old Californio’s YouTube page tonight, and they just uploaded a bunch of sweet video action from a recent in-studio performance at SoCal’s KPFK.
If you don’t have their Westering Again album, which came out earlier this year, youse a fool baby. Buy It.
Here’s a kickass tune called “Chilao” which isn’t on the album but I sure wish it was! It sums up everything I love about these guys: the earthy Southwest vibe, the unique arrangements and instrumentation… Gah! I love ‘em!

It’s Ben Vaughn’s band, a bunch of studio guys from L.A. who’ve been performing for a few years as ‘Los Californios.’ Great guys, great songs, just one of those ‘project’ bands that may never be heard but are worth seeking out.

Rich Dembowski is Ben Vaughn’s bass player, he’s the only band member that plays with Ben. NOT a project band “Old Californio” is doing their thing!
