Rodrigo y Gabriela - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@macfleetwood1]

Amazing how 2 people with literally nothing more than 2 acoustic guitars can keep an audience of thousands spellbound. No light show, no special effects, nothing but their virtuosity and their passion for and the power of their music.

[@andrewschmidt8584]

not trying to harsh your vibe, but they clearly also use effect pedals off stage controlled by some stage hands. The sound is not pure acoustic

[@iwannasmoovie8178]

I feel like Gabriella pulls most of the weight. Not to discredit Rodrigo, hes got style too.

[@iwannasmoovie8178]

@@andrewschmidt8584 you ever see them live?

[@juzek1958]

I think their primary effect is very high gain.

[@johncurtis920]

@@andrewschmidt8584: True...but a little back stage assistance takes nothing away from what is being said does it? Not one flash pot was exploded to entertain! Just a man, a woman, and a couple of guitars. Even if aided by electronics....well....to be able to do that is impressive. ;-) John~ American Net'Zen

I only recognized Orion

[@eatthesun7779]

Thanks Alexandro totaly appreciate

[@florangeh3407]

Лучше бы KEXP это сделали сразу. Поэтому я на ленивцев подписываться не стану. Просто нашла по гуглу интересующую композицию - она первая. И ой всё... Чисто для себя - 11:11 уже купила.

[@themetaphysicalrev99]

Thanks bro

[@Anthid1]

I love watching Gabriela play, when she is all out with her eyes closed, facing up, not looking at the guitar... she is the guitar... she is the music

[@SkiesWRLD]

rodrigo better>>

[@jakedogz]

I saw them in Manchester on Thursday and can confirm, she rarely leaves the zone

[@ramankathpalia5746]

When she plays, oblivious of surrounding, all immersed into music with eyes closed...She is something!

[@cristovalvaldes6446]

Recién estoy en la mitad del concierto de éste par de angeles, sus manos son alas musicales generosas, nos llevan con ellos, ella y el. Gracias por éste regalo ❤

[@juanvelasquezmedina6557]

bendito you tube soy mexicano y no conocia a estos extraordinarios musicos gracias a esta plataforma los puedo escuchar y disfrutar sus melodias son impresionantes.

[@inkydoug]

Gabriela is hypnotizing to me. She seems beatific,immersed in creation.

[@rockyhamilton7030]

Very beautiful, beyond passionate, rock solid relationship, they teach us all how to Love in thier music, romance abound!! Yall are welcome anytime at my home for dinner!!!

[@cciencin]

Man, I just saw them live last night for the first time. I thought this video was amazing, but it doesn't even do them any justice. You all have to see them live if you can. They're phenomenal.

[@musewolfman]

Just found your comment after seeing them last night as well (but 6 years later.) Like you said, even a live video does not do justice to the pure energy of being there live.

[@taniaandrade6049]

Orion will always be one of my favorites

[@mkay0077]

wow . over one million views ... I was lucky enough to catch them in a tiny pub in Dublin 10 years ago and they were phenomenal then ... still phenomenal, so glad for their success . they deserve it !!!

[@Unitopia117]

That must have been mind blowing. I can't believe they, according to Wiki, started their career in Dublin. It's hard being in Australia to see acts like this but I hope to one day.

[@mkay0077]

@@Unitopia117 it was phenomenal and the atmosphere was electric, tiny packed pub and I remember Gabrielle was playing Spanish guitar and slapping out these amazing rhythms on her guitar with her hands too ..they were both so tuned into each other and incredible. !!

[@Unitopia117]

@@mkay0077 Thank you for sharing that. Utterly amazing. It's those small intimate settings seem to add so much to the music.

[@Th3Gumbo]

Gabriela has got to be one of the most amazing rhythm guitarists I have ever seen, if you can even call her that.

[@xaviermoyssenalvarez4419]

she's the fucking GOAT lmao

[@mnemonichotpocket]

Some say she mastered the technique she learned better than the originator.

[@stevenrodriguez9655]

She is an absolute legend

[@noisemastering]

One of the GOATs

[@StuartKirk-io2re]

Totally agree!!

[@bebeysmael1.]

Some of the greatest guitar music I have ever had the pleasure to listen to.

[@joseluiscuffia2094]

You definitely have to listen more.

[@DjNikGnashers]

@@joseluiscuffia2094 I agree. This was good, but not even close to Tommy Emmanuel for example, who I was lucky enough to see live earlier this year.

[@NaomiMartin1928]

How have I never heard of them? They. Are. Incredible.

[@RaineCarosin]

Naomi Martin Hi, Naomi... Raine here. Your comment caught my eye, and I thought the same of Tommy Emmanuel... I mean, wow, too!!!!!

There is nothing better than stumbling upon musicians that you’ve never heard of but that are literal masters of their craft. Just awe inducing. I never get tired of seeing what people can do with instruments.

Duo THE BEST ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🥰♥️😋😋😋

[@patrickenright6094]

Isn't it great to see such talent, dedication and endless hours of practice pay off? These are now a worldwide act, but they had life very difficult for years. And it's probably still tough, with record companies taking what you have, and people illegally downloading your tunes. Yet in the face of it all, Rod y Gab persist. I'm happy to say that they lived here in Dublin (Ireland) for ~5 yrs, before ever making a name for themselves. Well done both, you are an inspiration in the face of adversity.

[@patrickenright6094]

Heavy metal/hard rock played on classical guitars in classical style - who would have thought it were possible? But Rod y Gab defied all the odds......

[@lateralusadam]

Esa mujer tiene toda una orquesta en la guitarra y el chico es la voz.

[@guitargodsecrets]

It's people like this that truly inspire others to pick up a guitar. Mind blown.

[@blakedawson2129]

every time I hear them play Orion I can hear Cliff laying down the bottom in my head.

[@bandnerd883]

When the term "amazing" feels like an understatement. I've never felt this way before, but while watching this, Rodrigo y Gabriela have made that possible. I am impressed beyond words! They create so many different sounds using so many different techniques that when you hear it, it makes you think you're hearing the sounds of many guitarists, but there's only two of them. The power in their talent is out of this world. It's beautiful! :'D

[@tonyholcomb1833]

What you said Nicolle!!

[@andycarter9117]

If you ever get the chance to see them live, you've got to do it. Just imagine Nicolle's comment multiplied x 10.

[@JohnJohn-sn5kd]

Andy Carter went to their concert two days ago in Singapore. Words can't describe my feelings. Been a fan for 7 years and when they invited people on stage.. well, words can't describe that experience.. THEY. ARE. AMAZING.

[@andreavogel8761]

They are amazing in concert!!! Funny and sweet as well.

I LOVE THE WAY SHE PLAYS AND WATCHS CLOSELY TO WHAT SHE IS DOING. THESE 2 ARE SO TIGHT TOGETHER, I LOVE IT!

[@johnspence2576]

Thanks so much for posting. How can 250 people hate this. I am a piano player/singer and just had a gig. People have no idea how hard it is to reach even a mediocre level, much less play like this. Now I can play some Chopin or Tchaikovsky which is close, but these two are playing like Bach on crystal meth, only way I can think to describe it. Love to all, especially the haters, because they need it most. John M. Spence

[@tomaszwota1465]

John Spence they are on some ungodly level looking from where I stand. As someone playing guitar as a hobby, I can only imagine how much work it was...

[@guitaroable]

Her right hand is very basic flamenco that most flamenco players can do , She does basically nothing with her left hand . He plays simple stuff with a pick . It's novel but not great musicianship . I would live to hear either of them play a 32nd note tremolo .

[@Hojbjerg2046]

so much passion, make me want to dance.

[@kaveiros75]

There were people who actually did NOT like this??? Humanity never ceases to surprise me…

[@guitaroable]

Maybe those people were halfway accomplished musicians who are are not new to classical or flamenco guitar ?

[@tripljck2004]

Can you even imagine the 'dedication' to their craft on top of playing in unison ? This is beyond fantastic.
