Rodrigo y Gabriela announce new LP and tour, share “Descending To Nowhere”

Guitar duo Rodrigo y Gabriela have announced a new album, In Between Thoughts…A New World, is coming on April 21 via ATO. It’s their first album since 2019’s Mettavolution, and was produced by Rodrigo and Gabriela themselves. The new LP digs into nondualism, the spiritual belief in the interconnection between mind and body and all people. Rodrigo became interested in nondualism after recovering from Covid-19, as he explained to Consequence:

I found a video on nondualism that resonated a lot with me and it felt like a switch [turned on]. I started to introduce this concept to Gab and she was skeptical at first. I didn’t explain myself because I couldn’t… I didn’t know how to explain it, but it was incredible and liberating, and I was sharing the authors that I was listening to [like Rupert Spira, Francis Lucille, and John Wheeler]. She got into it, eventually. At the same time, everything was shut down and we were writing music because that’s what we do!

Alongside the album announcement, Rodrigo y Gabriela have shared lead single “Descending To Nowhere,” a dynamic, high-intensity jam with synths backing their layered guitars. Listen to “Descending To Nowhere” and check out the artwork and tracklist for In Between Thoughts…A New World below.

Rodrigo y Gabriela have a bevy of tour dates across the world in the coming months, including a newly-announced North American run. Those shows will feature with Krooked Kings in the Southwest, Bahamas on the West Coast, and Ondara in the Eastern U.S. Tickets for the North American leg go on sale Friday (2/17) at 10am.

Rodrigo y Gabriela come to NYC on June 27 at Kings Theatre with Ondara. All dates below.
