Has anyone seen or heard these guys. 2 (1 male, 1 female) Mexican guitar players. No precussion, no singing, just pure instrumental genius and innovation.
Saw them on Sunday, and WOW!!

I've not seen them live but their Live CD is excellent. Nice reworkings of some Metallica songs in a Mexican guitar stylee.

I read an interview this them in Guitar Techniques (UK). They also had some sheet music examples of their playing styles.
That is some percussive technique they've got. It sounds great.
Can't wait to see them live.

(Jun 6 06, 05:41)Gabriela is the precussive player, the movemnet of her hands is so quick but the sound is so effective, excellent tempo and timing. They mentioned how they started out in Ireland busking and shit, real rags to riches.
Don't think you will see them live again for a while, they were saying at the Gig (Scala, Kings X) that they had 2 more dates and that was it.
