Steve Earle and Los Lobos Unite for Heartfelt Track ‘Volver A Celaya’

In an exciting collaboration, roots-music legends Steve Earle and Los Lobos have teamed up for the poignant new song “Volver A Celaya.” This marks the first time the two iconic acts have recorded together, despite sharing stages and touring together for decades.

Written from the perspective of a Mexican-born construction worker, Earle’s heartfelt lyrics reflect on the immigrant experience and the struggles faced by many. The song was crafted during Earle’s songwriting workshops in Brooklyn and has been a staple in his live performances since.

Recorded in Richmond, Virginia, with Los Lobos member Steve Berlin producing, the track is a testament to the deep-rooted connection between Earle and the band. Earle expressed his desire to give voice to the hardworking individuals he encountered early in his career, highlighting their dedication and resilience.

“Volver A Celaya” is available now on New West Records and will be released as a limited edition 7″ single on October 16, featuring Earle’s earlier track “City Of Immigrants” as the B-side. This collaboration promises to resonate with fans and newcomers alike, showcasing the timeless storytelling that both artists are known for.
