Spanning the band's career, the songs range from some of Lucero's most popular crowd favorites to more obscure rarities and were all recorded live in the studio featuring grand piano and acoustic guitar. The double album, Lucero Unplugged, presents 20 stripped down tracks that offer fresh takes on the band's exceptional catalogue. Press Quotes: "Few songwriters pull off romantic resignation quite as well as Nichols." - Pitchfork (7.6) // "Ben Nichols delivers raw heartache as his once roots band amps up the guitars. It's the country album The Replacements never made" - Rolling Stone // "... the fact that Lucero has made it 25 years singing about bad luck and worse choices is, in its own counter- intuitive way, something worth celebrating. Let's hope they never learn." - Paste Magazine
