We're delighted to announce that one of the world's finest guitarists,
Omar Rodriguez Lopez of Mars Volta & At The Drive In, brings his
Group to Dublin on Tuesday October 2nd. This performance will also
feature Mars Volta Drummer Deantoni Parks, and the incredible Teri
Gender Bender of Le Butcherettes on lead vocals.
Omar Rodriguez Lopez Group
Omar Rodriguez Lopez's genre-defying sixteen-year career has resulted
in more than 40 albums, a Grammy Award and being deemed among Rolling
Stone's "Greatest Guitarists of All Time." His seminal and critically
acclaimed band, At the Drive-In, redefined popular rock music at the end
of the last decade. Since that time, in addition to being both a solo
artist and leader/composer/producer of the The Mars Volta, Rodriguez
Lopez has collaborated with John Frusciante, Hans Zimmer, Erykah Badu,
RZA, Lydia Lunch and many others.
Along with Teri taking center
stage and The Mars Volta drummer Deantoni Parks once again in their
ranks on this tour, this incarnation of the ORLG will henceforth
function as a democracy -- a dynamic, shape-shifting band in the truest
sense. What they intend to achieve this autumn will be nothing short of a
total reinvention of themselves.
Check out Omar's most recent solo
album release, Octopus Kool Aid featuring lyrics and vocals by Teri
Gender Bender available to stream here:
