Enjoy this official music video of one of the tracks “Hanuman” from their new album 11:11.

Rodrigo Sanchez and Gabriela Quintero are Guitarists from Mexico who were in a Trash Metal band called Tierra Ácida. They were doing okay or maybe a little less than okay as they chose to throw away their electrics and embraced the acoustic nylon guitar and set off for Ireland in search of greener pastures, and to fulfill their dream of touring Europe. They have met with considerable acclaim there, topping the charts of Ireland where they now reside in it’s capital Dublin.

Rodrigo plays lead and performs powerful shreds and the tunes that he creates, has the flavors of his homeland.

Gabriela plays the rhythm and percussion on her guitar. The zeal in her percussive playing is so powerful that your heart starts to depend on the rhythm of her playing.

Both have different styles of playing. Rodrigo uses the plectrum for his leads and Gabriela uses finger style. Rodrigo can’t play the continuous strumming with chords that Gabriela plays along with percussion. Gabriela can’t shred like Rodrigo. But together they make a marvelous team. Kudos Rodrigo y Gabriela! Baila baila!
