Pre-order 9 Dead Alive on iTunes!

Rodrigo y Gabriela’s new record, 9 Dead Alive, is streaming in its entierity via NPR’s First Listen in advance of its release next Tuesday, April 29.  “In their newest album, 9 Dead Alive, Rodrigo y Gabriela return to their roots, reminding listeners why they fell in love with the Mexican duo in the first place. The album finds them at the peak of their musical flexibility,” said NPR. “This new album is extremely stripped down and minimalistic, a treat both for those who’ve been following the duo since the beginning, and also for those who recently discovered them: letting listeners eavesdrop on a private conversation spoken between two friends, in the universal language of the guitar.”
9 Dead Alive  is the band’s first record of new material in five years. It was recorded and produced by Rod and Gab at their studio in Ixtapa, Mexico. Also, look out for For Those About to Rock: The Story of Rodrigo y Gabriela, a documentary film directed by journalist Alejandro Franco. The film had its world premiere at this year’s SXSW film festival, and will be showing at film festivals around the world throughout the year.

The second leg begins July 27 at the XPoNential Music Festival in Camden, NJ, and ends August 17 at Red Rocks in Morrison, CO. The complete list of confirmed dates is below.
