Rodrigo y Gabriela at Latitude Festival July 201'

“The spellbinding musical brilliance of Rodrigo y Gabriela comes to Latitude Festival, to play the Obelisk Arena on Sunday night. Specialising in fast, rhythmic acoustic guitars, Rodrigo Sanchez and Gabriela Quintero are masters of fret-board wizardry straddling both world and rock with obvious Hispanic influences.

“Passionate yet melodic, the fire in their playing comes from their life-long love of metal music and they often cover Metallica and Led Zeppelin in their live performances. Gaining a burgeoning cult following since their inception in 2001 their recent album ’11:11’ has pushed them further into the mainstream prompting appearances on American TV and Jools Holland’s Hootenanny. Their performance at Latitude will be an absolute must!”

On May 28, Rod and Gab found themselves on a set somewhere in the mountains of Central Mexico to shoot a music video of Hanuman. The Director was Olallo Rubio. It just showed up on YouTube and it’s a good one. Enjoy.

Review by David Spira – The Geek Whisperer

It’s no secret that Rodrigo y Gabriela are one of my favorite musical acts. I love pretty much everything I have heard them do. When I saw them perform at Terminal 5 last September, I was blown away by their live act. That being said, their latest performance at Manhattan’s Radio City Music Hall, was an order of magnitude better than their Terminal 5 performance.
