Video Of The Day
Rodrigo y Gabriela
This is one of the best covers of Stairway to Heaven I have ever heard.
Rodrigo y Gabriela met as kids in Mexico City while playing in a thrash metal band called Tierra Acida. Tired of the scene in Mexico they took off for Dublin in 1995. They started out there as street performers but soon after were playing in festivals, pubs and other small venues, all the while polishing their sound.
They caught their break when a longtime fan named Damien Rice approached them to support his tour. They have be winning over fans everywhere with the magical sound. Check them out at http://www.rodgab.com/
PS – Check out Rodrigo’s T-Shirt
