Rodrigo Y Gabriela

Based in Dublin, Ireland, originally from Mexico, this duo plays acoustic guitar with style, flair, and talent. A bit of flamenco, a bit of rock, a touch of world. (including covers of “Stairway to Heaven,” and Metallica’s “Orion.” It’s hard to define, but it’s all good. If you love guitar, you’ll love this CD. They are amazing. They have a fabulous, percussive style that can give their music a fascinating, driving edge. All instrumentals.
