Rodrigo Y Gabriela: Extra Dublin Show Added Due to Demand

The artists, whose music can be described as a unique mixture of rock, metal, flamenco and accoustic, have already performed at the Olympia Theatre plenty of times, including for a recent sold-out show.

Adding to their evergrowing success, the release of their new album Mettavolution this week - about Buddhism, the history of human evolution and our potential as a specy - was acclaimed by the critics. This prompted the duo to announce an extensive UK and Irish tour in late September and early October.

Initially, they had planned to perform at the Olympia on September 19th, which sold-out yet again. Due to the high demand, an extra show was added the night before.

They have shared a video to the album's title track of which they say: “It was wonderful to work with director George Mays on this video. And once again we worked with visual designer Joshua Pierce who also designed the Mettavolution album cover. His ethereal landscapes bring a sense of otherworldly nature to the video. With this video we were trying to balance the energy of the track with a meditative calm where we are at one with our surroundings.”

Rodrigo Y Gabriela have not ceased to gain more and more recognition worldwide. For now, they are soon to embark on a huge US tour which will run through Spring and Summer, before their great return to Ireland.

Tickets from €34 including booking fee on sale Friday July 19th at 9am from Ticketmaster.
