OUR NEW 3-TRACK ‘JAZZ EP’ OUT NOW Buy Rodrigo y Gabriela on CD & Vinyl here: First track - Kamasi Washington’s ‘Street Fighter Mas’ The first taste of the ‘JAZZ EP’ is a delicious cover of ‘Street Fighter Mas’ by tenor sax giant Kamasi Washington, released - 18th February - which coincidentally is Kamasi’s 40th birthday. Rod says: “It was a no-brainer for us. Kamasi is one of the most exciting jazz musicians out there and ‘Street Fighter Mas’ has such a good groove.” Gab adds: “It was a challenge for us, recreating the instruments with just two guitars, so it became a kind of game. We had to change a few bits and pieces, especially in how I interpreted the drum parts on my guitar.” The JAZZ EP also features covers of ‘Lingus’ by Snarky Puppy and ‘Oblivion’ by Astor Piazzolla, with a guest appearance by flamenco-guitar legend Vicente Amigo. The release will be limited to just 3,000 copies worldwide, pressed on cloudy orange vinyl and individually numbered. ~
