XIXA is an American rock band from Tucson, Arizona. Allmusic describes their music as "a form of blues indebted to the desert, mixed in with their Latin roots and a dose of gothic horror.".[1]

History

Brian Lopez and Gabriel Sullivan founded a group called Chicha Dust which eventually became XIXA, releasing its first album, an eight-track live EP, in 2013.[2] Both Lopez and Sullivan had previously played in the group Giant Sand. The group's name references chicha, a Peruvian style of music indebted to both cumbia and psychedelic rock.[3]

Following the debut EP, Shift and Shadow, the group released a full-length album Bloodline in 2016, and toured the United States and Europe.[4] A four-song EP called The Code arrived in 2019.[5] Genesis, a second full-length, arrived in 2021.[6]

Xixa ist eine 2013 gegründete Band aus Tucson. Sie selbst bezeichnen ihre Musik als "Mystic Desert Rock". "Goth Cumbia" oder "Latin Psych". Ein wichtiges Element ihrer immer tanzbaren Musik und ihrer visuellen, düsteren Ästhetik ist die Wüstenlandschaft um ihre Heimatstadt. Dabei arbeiten sie eng mit dem Künstler Daniel Martin Diaz zusammen.
