    Gabriela coming in hard with the Kiki's Delivery Service and Exception soundtracks! I had no idea she was into anime. Can't go wrong with Nina Simone either, IMO. Rodrigo's picks were also great...

Rodrigo's picks were also great too though. Leonard Cohen is one of my mom's favorites, The Smoke is a great song, and Tool is one of my absolute favorite bands as well.

    I love love love Rodrigo y Gabriela, and if you haven't heard of them, you're missing out. They're one of the very very few bands that has been invited to NPR Tiny Desk more than once, and I highly recommend both appearances:

    Rodrigo y Gabriela: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
    Rodrigo y Gabriela: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert

    And another of my favorite performances of theirs:
    Rodrigo y Gabriela - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

    Oh wow, haven't thought of these guys in years, thank you for posting! Diablo Rojo and Tamacun were particular favorites of mine.

      They have a new studio album coming out soon (already listenable on YouTube and elsewhere); Their first in 4 years. So that's probably why they're starting to pop up in promos like this again...
