A couple of months ago I was showing my brother around Los Angeles. When I took him to Santa Monica's 3rd Street Promenade and then to Venice Beach later that day, I was expecting to have a great time but not be introduced to hearing two of the greatest guitarists I have ever seen just casually playing in the Promenade. Some street performers are definitely talented, but these guys were unique, they belonged on stage. Blown away I bought the cd.
Seis Cuerdas is made up of the Etcheverry brothers originally from Argentina, and I can guarantee you'll be hailing the gods of music when you hear how these dudes can shred. It's like a fusion of the incredible techinical skill required to play Flemenco music, crossed with the furious energy and the passion characterstic of Heavy Metal. In fact, what first caught my eye and made me stop to listen was the big Iron Maiden sticker that one of the brother had stuck to his guitar. They even have acoustic flamenco covers of Maiden's "Losfer's Words" and "Lonliness of the Long Distance Runner." Up the iron's in a whole new genre.
I'm not going to upload the whole cd because they deserve all the support they can get. Enjoy the sample though, and hopefully, like me, you won't be able to stop listening too.
