2016 has been another incredible year for Rodrigo y Gabriela, as they have taken their explosive live set to twenty-five different countries, including their first ever tour of South America. They also played the Hollywood Bowl with special guests Robert Trujillo (Metallica), Marty Friedman (Megadeth) and an eighty-piece orchestra.

This will be their first Dublin show since 2014 where fans can get a special up-close, first experience of their hugely anticipated new material. Rodrigo y Gabriela will be unveiling some new tracks from their forthcoming studio album, which will be released on Rubyworks in 2017.

Rodrigo Y Gabriela will also perform the following regional gigs: at Sligo Live Festival on October 28 and Opera House, Cork (as part of the Cork Jazz Festival) on October 30.

Tickets for The Academy cost €36.50 and go on sale Friday September 16 at 9am via Ticketmaster.
