Lucero frontman Ben Nichols and keyboardist Rick Steff spent a day at Grammy Award-winning engineer Matt Ross-Spang’s Southern Grooves Studio in Memphis recording acoustic versions of Lucero songs. Spanning the band’s entire career, the songs range from the most popular to the most obscure rarities, and were all recorded live in the studio with a grand piano and acoustic guitar. The double album, Lucero Unplugged, features 20 stripped-down tracks that offer a fresh look at the band's outstanding discography.
