Guajira is a duet that blends the best of folk music, world music, and progressive rock: a powerful and unique sound. The exceptional instrumentation brings the listener to different parts of the world and keeps them rooted to their seats for an instrumental adventure, strong in technical passages and flights of melodies. In summer of 2007, an instrumental duet was born from a desire to push the acoustic guitar and drum limits to create a unique, rich and artistic musical universe. In spring of 2009, after a year and half of intensive composing and giving shows in bars, Guajira recorded its first album. On stage and disc, the strength of the band resides in the members’ virtuosity. Melodies, harmonies and bass are driven by Jean-François Tremblay’s passionate guitar and Luc Cloutier conveys energy and vitality through rhythms, guitar and other textures. Guajira’s compositions please the music lover in search of well structured pieces and virtuosity, as well as general audiences looking for beautiful melodies and sunny tones. Guajira brings a refreshing draft to the musical scenery and leaves you with interest, curiosity and sunshine in your ears.
