Tomas Rodriguez performs music drawn from his Spanish ancestral roots, while exploring intersections with Afro-Peruvian, Cuban, and West African musical traditions. Each track on his newest album, Whispered Awakening (out May 1), functions as a musical reflection on memory, time, and place, with Rodriguez’s solo guitar evoking the circular patterns of the Mandinka kora, the earthy grooves of Afro-Peruvian landó, and the celebratory spirit of Cuban rumba guaguancó as he travels through each musical landscape. https://tomasrodriguez.com/
