Guitar deities and #xpnfest artists Rodrigo y Gabriela give a taste of their new album in “The Russian Messenger”
There may be no two people on earth who play the guitar like Rodrigo y Gabriela. The XPoNential Music Fest artists are a harmonious duo who blend rock with flamenco, metal, jazz and more. They are finger magicians, with Rodrigo’s pulsating guitar lines leading the way and Gabriela following as the “rhythmic battery,” with a finger picking style that is truly otherworldly.
Rodrigo y Gabriela are known especially for their exhilarating live performances, mesmerizing audiences from their early days on as buskers in Dublin to the huge festivals and sold out crowds they play to now. To get a taste of their latest record, 9 Dead Alive, watch an in-studio performance of “The Russian Messenger,” performed live at Lumbini Studio in Mexico. Uno dos tres va!
