Unique, intriguing, amazing fusion of musical disciplines...Rodrigo & Gabriela

They played for Obama and the Mexican President. R&G are originally from Mexico City. The Mexican prez didn't know who they were and a surprised Obama proudly exclaimed that he has them on his Ipod...lol. Also check out their Youtube rendition of Stairway to Heaven. Gorgeous! I love the physicality of their playing style too.
This is the entire concert so watch as much or little as you like.

And when they were much younger and doing cover songs...beautiful!
