GRAMMY-winning guitar duo Rodrigo y Gabriela have announced their new album OurHome, due September 18th via ATO Records. The album is available for pre-order and pre-save now. A limited-edition D2C pressing of 500 units on custom red, clear, and blue chaotic splatter vinyl is also available exclusively through the band’s official store. The announcement arrives alongside news of an extensive North American headline tour this fall, followed by dates across Ireland, the U.K., and Europe in spring 2027.
Recorded in Japan and self-produced by Rodrigo Sánchez and Gabriela Quintero at NK Sound Tokyo, OurHome marks a new chapter for the Mexico City-bred duo, whose singular blend of instrumental guitar music and fearless musical exploration has earned them a global audience over the past two decades.
Alongside the announcement, Rodrigo y Gabriela have shared the album’s first single, “Monster,” accompanied by a new music video created by legendary manga artist Naoki Urasawa.
One of Japan’s most celebrated creators, Urasawa is the acclaimed author of Monster, 20th Century Boys, Pluto, and Master Keaton, with more than 140 million copies of his work sold worldwide. Inspired by Urasawa’s seminal psychological thriller Monster, Rodrigo y Gabriela’s new single explores the tangled contradictions of the human psyche through one of the album’s darkest and most cinematic compositions. The accompanying video brings the connection full circle, with Urasawa creating original artwork inspired by the song and its themes.
“Monster is such a deep, philosophical story – it’s about a psychopathic killer, but it’s so uplifting and leaves you with a real sense of hope,” says Quintero. “We’d written that track without knowing that Urasawa was a fan of ours, and now he’s making the video for us.”
The admiration was mutual. Urasawa, who discovered Rodrigo y Gabriela through their live performances years before the collaboration came together, says he was stunned when he learned the duo had written a song inspired by Monster.
“I still find it incredible that encounters like this can really happen,” says Urasawa. “Originally, I watched videos of their live performances and thought they were amazing, so I started collecting their vinyl records and CDs.”
After learning that Rodrigo y Gabriela’s new song had been inspired by Monster, Urasawa reached out through the band’s Japanese promoter and soon found himself sitting down with the duo in Tokyo.
“When artists I admire that much bring you an offer like that, there’s no way you can say no!” he says. “The completed track, ‘Monster,’ not only perfectly captures the mood of my work Monster, but the duo’s guitar playing also transports us to an entirely different and elevated dimension.”
“I knew I had to create visuals worthy of this music,” Urasawa adds. “And so, I took on the challenge of drawing the video you are watching now. I hope you enjoy it!”
