Rodrigo y Gabriela 11:11
It's always a joy to discover great new music and this pair of Mexicans have an incredibly diverse and varied background. Combine that with their compelling and circuitous route to stardom and you'll soon be a fan. Starting out Mexico City playing heavy metal in the band Tierra Acida, they grew disillusioned after having recorded an album that was never released - supporting themselves teaching guitar and playing in Bossa Nova clubs help diversify their styles. However they grew bored and decided to take their chances in Europe when they were offered a place to stay in Dublin, Ireland... the rest is history and their newest album 11:11 is a pleasurable listen whose complexity grows with repeated plays. Try it, you'll like it.

I have been digging Rodrigo y Gabriela so much that I gathered as many of their concert videos, inteviews and guest appearances as I could find and created a website, the Rodrigo y Gabriela Fan Club. Cheers.
