Rodrigo y Gabriela – In Between Thoughts…A New World Tour With Special Guest ONDARA
GRAMMY Award winning duo Rodrigo y Gabriela grew up on an eclectic mix of classic rock, heavy metal and flamenco, a rare alchemy of influences that still informs their work today. As they developed their distinct breed of guitar music, Rodrigo y Gabriela quickly gained recognition for their extraordinary live show and made their full-length debut with 2002’s “re Foc.” Along with turning out 8 additional acclaimed and kaleidoscopic albums over the years: including “Area 52” (a 2012 effort made with a Cuban orchestra), “9 Dead Alive” (a 2014 release that spotlighted their more rock-leaning sensibilities) and the 2020 GRAMMY winning Best Contemporary Instrumental Album, “Mettavolution,” the duo has cemented their status as a globally renowned live act. Among their many successes: performing at The White House for the President and First Lady of Mexico at a 2010 event hosted by Barack Obama; headlining the Jazz World stage at Glastonbury; selling out major venues like the Hollywood Bowl, Red Rocks Amphitheatre, London’s Royal Albert Hall, Radio City Music Hall, and the Sydney Opera House; and performing to massive crowds in such far-flung cities as Tokyo and Paris. 2023 sees the release of their most ambitious project yet, the Advaita Vedanta inspired “In Between Thoughts…A New World,” which features their signature dual guitar attack augmented by a full orchestra, and a corresponding world tour.
About ONDARA:
Ondara’s new album, “Spanish Villager No: 3,” was predominately produced by Ondara and Mike Viola (Jenny Lewis, Dan Wilson) with contributions from Taylor Goldsmith and Griffin Goldsmith of Dawes, Sebastian Steinberg, Tim Kuhl and Jeremy Stacey. The new collection of songs features a much more full, electric sound.
Ondara grew up in Nairobi, Kenya listening to American alt-rock and making up his own songs for as long as he can remember. At an early age he fell in love with the music of Bob Dylan and was granted a visa through the immigration lottery system. He chose Minneapolis as his home to pursue a career as a singer and songwriter with Dylan in mind. He began making his way in the local music scene, continually writing songs about what he saw, felt and experienced in a place far different from home.
