My favorite Chilango duo is coming out with a new album on ATO. The acoustic junkies will be releasing their forthcoming album, 11:11, Sept 8th and will go out on a small tour to support the album. I’m kind of surprised there are no Led Zepellin covers on the album. More from ATO:
ATO Records is excited to announce that Rodrigo y Gabriela will release their new studio album, entitled 11:11, on Tuesday September 8th. 11:11 was recorded in Ixtapa, Mexico and produced by Rodrigo y Gabriela, with John Leckie co-producing two of the tracks. The album was mixed in Wales and London by Colin Richardson, best known for his work with Slipknot and Trivium.
Comprising 11 new original compositions, 11:11 is the band’s personal “Gracias” to 11 musicians, both past and present, who have inspired them along the way. Alex Skolnick of metal gods Testament guests on the album, as do widely respected acoustic veterans Strunz & Farah.
11:11 is the long awaited follow up to their 2006 self-titled debut which has so far enjoyed worldwide sales in excess of half a million albums.
