Alejandro Escovedo brings comeback to D.C.

Alejandro Escovedo has no preconceived notions about his next album. He knows that sometime in the middle of May he’ll likely retreat to West Texas to write. Although his brand of alt country-punk many tag as Americana has won the hearts of his loyal fan base, don’t be surprised if the Austin-based Escovedo mixes it up a bit on the next record.

“Things are very different from me now,” said Escovedo of the years since his near fatal battle with hepatitis C. “I saw what I needed to focus on in my life.”
