For over two decades, Rodrigo y Gabriela have created music that invites lasting transcendence, mesmerizing audiences across the globe with their virtuosic yet wildly inventive guitar playing. Critically lauded albums like 2019\u2019s GRAMMY\u00ae Award-winning Mettavolution have seen the Mexico City-bred duo continually turning to musical expression as a form of spiritual searching, a journey that recently led to the making of their sixth studio album. Sparked from their study of Advaita Vedanta (a Hindu philosophy rooted in the concept of nondualism), In Between Thoughts…A New World emerged from a transformative period of spiritual awakening and a subsequent burst of unfettered creativity.<\/p>\n

\n

While recovering from Covid in the fall of 2020, Rodrigo stumbled upon the concept of nondualism \u2013 the notion that there is a \u201csingle, infinite, and indivisible reality, whose nature is pure consciousness, from which all objects and selves derive their apparently independent existence,\u201d in the words of author\/teacher Rupert Spira. He shared his findings with Gabriela, who felt a similar resonance. As they delved further into the philosophy, the duo began channeling this new sense of heightened awareness into song form.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe music just started flowing out, without any real intention,\u201d says Rodrigo. \u201cWhen we looked back we realized we\u2019d come up with nine songs that told the story of our coming to understand the Advaita path, in the exact perfect order. We didn\u2019t change the foundation of the songs from that point, so what you hear on the album is the music as we were creating it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

In a testament to the expressiveness and depth of Rodrigo y Gabriela\u2019s musicality, In Between Thoughts wordlessly leads the listener through a complex narrative complete with plot, emotional arcs, and plenty of dramatic tension. Mixed by James Monti (The Who, The Head and the Heart) and mastered by Greg Calbi (Tame Impala, Beach House), the album marks a sharp departure from the duo\u2019s signature acoustic sound, with Rodrigo trading his acoustic guitar for electric, adding a mercurial new energy elegantly amplified by the duo\u2019s subtle use of analog synths, Mellotron, and other electronic instruments. Rodrigo y Gabriela also worked remotely with Vienna-based composer Adam Ilyas Kuruc and The Bulgarian Symphony Orchestra, who ornamented the duo\u2019s serpentine arrangements with lush strings and powerful percussion. Yet even as it pushes into uncharted sonic terrain, the album draws much of its power from the singular dynamic that\u2019s always distinguished Rodrigo y Gabriela\u2019s music, a delicate interplay between Gabriela\u2019s potent and percussive strumming and Rodrigo\u2019s breathlessly fast yet intricate lead guitar work.<\/p>\n

\n

Reflecting on the making of In Between Thoughts\u2026A New World, Rodrigo y Gabriela are quick to note the charmed spontaneity that guided their process \u2014 an element that extends all the way to their serendipitous discovery of conceptual artist Jeremy Gluck, who created the album\u2019s cover art and whose work is partly inspired by the teachings of the renowned Indian guru of nondualism Nisargadatta Maharaj.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI think one of the main things we\u2019ll take away from this experience is to let the music flow, let it live and breathe without judging it first,\u201d says Gabriela.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe didn\u2019t work on this record thinking, \u2018Let\u2019s share this message with the world\u2019 \u2014 we\u2019re not interested in preaching anything,\u201d says Rodrigo. \u201cIf it benefits people in any way to learn about this, then that\u2019s wonderful. But for us it was a way to explore something that\u2019s brought us a lot of peace and freedom \u2013 something that we love talking about because it\u2019s changed our lives in an incredible way.\u201d<\/p>\n
