Rodrigo y Gabriela are known for their energetic instrumental music, blending Latin rhythms with heavy metal and classic rock. The duo moved from Mexico to Ireland, where they played in local pubs and opened for Damien Rice. Their debut album made them an international sensation, leading to performances on talk shows and contributions to films like Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and Puss in Boots.
They have been touring extensively and have played at major festivals like Bluesfest Byron Bay and the Ghent Jazz Festival. One of their standout shows was in 2024 at Fox Theater in Oakland, California, where they grossed over $84,000 from ticket sales.
