Hermanos Gutiérrez: Tiny Desk Concert

There is a slow burning intensity to everything Hermanos Gutiérrez does, including how the duo walked into our offices and saw the Tiny Desk for the first time. “Wow, there it is…” Estevan said quietly to his brother Alejandro.
Hermanos Gutiérrez’s origin story is as intricate as the guitar playing styles of its two members. The brothers have roots in both Switzerland and Ecuador, and the time spent in those two very distinct cultures and geographies gives their sound a tempered European coolness, coupled with a warm, playful energy. From the opening strains of “El Bueno Y El Malo” the brothers’ turn behind the Desk is the perfect introduction to their music if you don’t already know them - and a treat if you already do.
They weave intricate guitar lines over each other that intertwine to the point that if you close your eyes you can’t tell where one begins and the other ends. With a slight touch of a digital loop pedal, Estevan even sneaks in an entire percussion section on bongo and cowbell on “Tres Hermanos.” When my Alt.Latino co-host Anamaria Sayre and I interviewed them on the podcast last year, I notice that they converse very much like they play: their comments intertwine and layer upon each other’s in the same way they play in unison and against each other in songs like “Thunderbird” and “Pueblo Man.”

Oh my God you nailed it
mindblowing idea, maybe a also with Andrew Paak and the nationals
they are going on tout A LA SALA 2024
DEADASS.
seeing them all in april!!
Someone please hire these guys to make a soundtrack for a film. I find their music so cinematic.
TOUCHE TOUCHE TOUCHE first time hearing this group outstanding sound
I play their albums when I create; I call it my Django playlist haha
Sounds like a Tarantino movie 😂
You might dig Neil Young's soundtrack to Deadman.
Well, they're buddies with The Black Keys, only a matter of time before they're offered, I would think.
I listened the first song so many time in repeat that I almost turned myself in a nopal cactus in a desert. And I was fine.
I have a barbershop and this music suits perfectly, we are able to focus on the job and keep customers happy and relax, this music feels ancient, it comes from the soul...
I was just thinking... ideal to tattoo to too.
My barbershop is rap and r&b. It gets old. I should recommend this.
@@nmh20 Yeah, that's a very limited palette. Definitely suggest more genres to be added to the playlist
Hermanos gets plenty of plays at our barber shop, as well.
living in the American South West, this is like soundtrack when driving to and from Phoenix through the desert. Love this.
My Uber driver in L.A. was listening to these guys. I've been listening ever since.
I went on a date & the guy was playing this in the car! I was mesmerized while we drove in silence soaking this sweetness in. I later texted him to get their name & have been listening to them non stop. They were perfect viewing partners for the Eclipse ❤ So much appreciation.
are you guys married today? please
How big was the car ?
I looove them , I cant stop listening, your golddust hermanos
Their vibe feels like they’re just at home playing for themselves and each other, like no one else is even there. Hahah. Definitely adding this one to the playlist!!
It's well worth it! Perfect chill and relax music. 🙌🏼
That’s exactly what it’s like 😊
Posers
That's what I thought too @deadfrog
Strange that crossed my mind too. Pictured them just jamming in their abuela's garage never imagining they'd possibly make a career out of it but doing it for the therapy of music and fun of it. Probably why it sounds so genuine ay?
My God! This is one of those treasures that make you wonder: How did I not know about these guys?! And: Thank God for NPR bringing them to my attention. How beautiful their music is. The intensity!
I've been listening to them for years, I wear shirts so people ask me who they are, so I can tell them!
thanks UA-cam recommendation algorithm
@@415s30oh, where do you buy these shirts?? 😀
@@jebberwocky Exactly! Just discovered them right after Morcheeba
First time listening to these guys and I was hooked from the first 5 seconds. Can't wait to have this on as I drive off into the sunset!
Their music tell a story without saying a word, amazing.
Perfectly stated
Lo que tú escribíste es poesía
Hats off to the best comment.
Agree. Wanna hear another great story? Check Tommy Emmanuel, Louis & Clark. A musical trip thru the middle east. Thank me later 😊
Yeah exactly
The Tarantino vibes are strong in this one...
Whoa, youtube just started autoplaying this and i was gonna click to the video i was meaning to watch and about six notes in, it hit me like a bolt of lightning.
Volume up, max quality, fullscreen, eyes closed.
I have a dream where they make a song with khruangbin 😮
This music is like being on psychedelics without being on psychedelics
dont try so hard.
😂@@RobertSlover
How do you know.. have you ever been on psychedelics without being on psychedelics?
You cannot be cooler than these guys
These guys are like if a Portlandia character was actually cool.
Unless you are Hak Baker who if a big fan❤
Me gustaría volver a sentir la emoción de descubrir Hermanos Gutierrez por primer vez. Para la gente que no los conocía, disfrutar a este bello dúo ❤❤❤
Mi primers vez eacuchandolos y este sonido es authentico y chingon
Lo estoy sintiendo. Se siente como 😮
Exactamente eso estoy haciendo en éste momento, una maravilla los hnitos!
Todavía me acuerdo de topármelos en UA-cam hace unos años que iban empezando, qué chido que se den a conocer internacionalmente
Son una maravilla
You can tell great music when you don't need a voice. Thank you!
0:00 “El Bueno Y El Malo”

Thx brother 🤙💜
This comment should be pinned to the top lol
ECUADOR en la casa!!! Grande los Hermanos
I just played this because I’m in a hotel room in Mazunte Mexico with my gf and the toilet has no doors, so this would make some noise, but now I realize how good this video is 🤣 hilarious way to discover this guys
Love mazunte
Exactly the same for me and my gf bro, what a coincidence hahaha. Saludos desde Argentina
😂😂 what a story!
Hotel bathroom doors are universally terrible
Cuarto de hotel de una estrella atardecer de 5 estrellas en Mazunte.
i am a mother to three sons, one of which passed away from SIDS in 2020 at 24 days old. alejandro and estevan, i feel my son in the stars when i listen to your music. i listen to tres hermanos on repeat and cry a whole spectrum of tears. i am getting a hollow body gretsch tattoo with the words tres hermanos as an addition to his already present memorial tattoo. thank you for speaking the way you do through your music.
These cabrones are amazing. Slendid artists.
💞💞
you are THE mom
🤍🤍🤍
❤❤❤
Finalmente Ecuador presente en NPR! El sonido y la nostalgia del bosque seco al filo del mar ❤.
Elloa son de ecuador ?????
I feel like I am in a movie about a person searching the desert for something they left behind
PERFECT description lol ❤️
Totally haha
Turns out what they were looking for was inside them the whole time...
I see Danny Trejo feeding Clint Eastwood water saying not to drink it to fast 💗
💯 % dead on!!! Def sounds like walking the desert, in a bolo tie at sunset, looking for answers
At this point I would like to praise the team of NPR Music for this really extraordinary concert series.
I have been listening and watching you for several years now and am always surprised to find such great new music and musicians that inspire me as a musician myself. This concert by Hermanos Gutiérrez is one of those wonderful discoveries that I would never have made without you!
For this, my sincere thanks!
I fully agree!
This and Khruangbin....
... and Anderson Paak...
... and....
The Tiny Desk is my spot for normal on the internet.
Thank you for releasing this statement.
I fully agree! 💯
This music is saving my life.
I am super obsessed with this comment because I said this as well and I think people really don't get how powerful what you just said is. It is literally like making you feel alive. It's giving you life. It's saving your soul in its own way ❤
Esta música vino a consolarme el alma en medio del dolor.
16 minutes, 39 seconds, no wrong note. Wow! This is unreal.
NPR Music is the best platform on the planet!
These guys should be in a movie.
coen bros or tarntinio
I'm imagining two brothers riding 100 of miles on horseback to find their siblings that were displaced during war
The last of us from HBO
Or make the soundtrack of a movie
If pulp fiction was a band.
These brothers are magnificent. I can listen to their music on repeat for hours.
This is so incredible!!! They are amazing artists
Ennio Morricone is smailing from heaven. Saludos desde Argentina ❣
Brilliant comparison, saluti
and link wray!
Wow… their music creates passion, colors, frequencies… very intense and pulsating
I feel you
The best music for a summer drive at dusk.
For me, this is so intense, i do not need any voice, the guitar sound "sings" for itself.
The duo is in completely harmony.
i love the perfection
I rode my track bike without brakes from Santa Barbara to LA listening 90% of the time to their magic. Now every time I listen to their music, I am transported back to my saddle. Thank you tiny desk, you stay coming through!
Aye you’re a legend track bikes are the best bro!
Su musica es medicina para la alma.
“el alma” 🙏🏾
I was listening to the Kruangbin station on Pandora and it was playing Hermanos Gutierrez too. Awesome.
Not only are these 2 brothers awesome guitarists but they have good taste in a new mexico style clothing.
Everyday I jump into the lake of Zurich (3 degrees Celsius) I put their music on a speaker and go into a deep trance. Nothing like it in the world!
Badi life
The music warms you up from within so you do not freeze totally!
It beautiful to see brothers creating such beautiful music together….you can really feel their love and respect for each other.
This version of Thunderbird is so therapeutic..it sure got me through some bad days. Just Beautiful
I have chills running through my body.
Them and Khruangbin on Sunday at Coachella is INSANE !
1st time I heard them was two years ago, Driving through the high Desert Taking in the scene and all of a sudden I hear them on a small radio station and just fell in love. They are my Meditation, music and cooking or creating.
What part! Grew up in the high desert and agree this suits some of the open roads so perfectly
Their sound is so authentic to the genre yet so fresh. Amazing performance
@@JordiBoy_ americana :P
@@XNateXXDawgX lol not Americana
What genre? I feel like it is a real fusion of latin american guitar from many different countries and almost a
"western movie score" with a psychedelic feel
@@absolmute estoy de acuerdo contigo, tiene un poco de esto un poco de aquello y tiene tintes de rock psicodélico
@@tintonito6658 @absolmute and hip hop too, they're doing lots of looping rhythms, I can easily spit bars to this... fire music overall
I’m not a musician, but wouldn’t this be reverb heaven?
Also not a musician, but I believe it’s tremolo heaven🎸
This melodies just get into the brain without resistance, flow through every cel of the body to be finally released through the skin and travel with the wind
I close my eyes and I’m in a spiritual journey through a barren desert
La cadencia es tan elegante, tan perfecta, es como navegar en aguas tranquilas, un viaje extraordinario.
Oh yeah!!! Their album made my top 10 list of 2022. Happy to see them here.
My #1 listen
Whats ur top10?
They were one of my top artists on Spotify in '22. Love these guys so much! Only up from here
Whats your top 10
@@midasandre nothing else in this style/genre. I’m more into ambient, left field, neo classical avant garde. But, since you asked, some of my other faves from the year include Bitchin’ Bajas - “Switched on Ra” Sophie Birch, “Holotropica” Carmen Villain “Only Love from Now On” Jeremiah Chiu and Marta Sofia Honer “Recordings from the Åland Islands
Vamos Ecuador, siempre adelante! Orgullo!!!
Got nothing to say except I love these hermanos. Their music is a balm to my soul.
Los descubrí en cuarentena, que genialidad sus discos! Maravillosa su musica! Saludos desde Argentina!
This band is mesmerizing
That is just the word.
I've been listening to these guys every morning for the past few months. perfect music to wake up to at 5:00 a.m.
I can't tell you how many times I've rewatched this. I especially adore "el bueno y el malo" dearly.
Had the pleasure to see them live in Hamburg, Germany. One of the coolest concerts I've ever been, there were moments where everybody was quiet appreciating the amazing sounds that this beautiful humans make :) (énfasis en: increíble y hermosos, gracias) it was everything!!!
Saw them live last night in San Antonio (their first time in SA). The energy was cosmic, absolutely transcendent. They are totally immersed in the music they make- the rest of us are just lucky enough to be there.
Every time I listen to these two cats do their thing, I find myself without defense, unable to keep my hips from rolling slowly, deeply, powerfully this way and that, embodying the super sultry nature of their dark blues sound. All joking aside, the works of Hermanos Gutierrez is a gift I wish everyone could receive: an ultra-concentrated infusion of creative energy that awakens, nourishes and heals the woman without and the goddess within. For kindly reminding me of my divine powers, I am truly grateful. 🙏
El buen Dan Auerbach siempre produciendo y apostando por maravillosos artistas, y estos genios no son la excepción. Un saludo y abrazo desde Bolivia, Hermanos Gutiérrez. 🇧🇴
Can’t put into words how much I appreciate their music. In the past 2 years they have shared with me so many precious moments.
Organic, telling stories without words.
Absolutely beautiful.
Wow what can I say....wonderful music ...thank you for putting a smile on my face.
Just discovering these guys. Thanks NPR. You can hear, feel and see the music they play. Everything is in complete synchronicity! Pura vida Hermanos!
Dig how they each can do the rhythm and lead parts
Felt like I was listening to a 16 minute movie. Epic!
I can definitely hear the Ecuadorian influence in their music. This is my first time hearing their music and I see a thumbnail to the right with 45 minutes of their greatest hits. Will be listening to that next.
These guys are what cool wants to be…. Thanks Brothers
Me hicieron volar! Gracias y abrazos para todos desde el km20 medio del monte y a la orilla del río parana, Corrientes, Argentina.
i wish i was 1% as cool as these dudes. great artists, incredible sound
Wow, I really enjoy how seamlessly the older brother throws down with a looper pedal. I felt like it was some movie soundtrack and I was thinking I’d enjoy whatever movie that was.
Man I love their music! Love to see them tour with Khruangbin.
When music touches your soul 💜
Wow, what a beautiful discovery!
Thank you 🙏🏼
One of my favorite groups in the world. Such quality.
Tangible tenderness and power... one of my favorite concerts on here that I've ever seen, thank you NPR for having them.
I cannot stop listening to these guys. It is hauntingly beautiful, like driving through the high desert of West Texas while smoking a fatty. You don't want the experience to end and the more you listen the deeper it becomes entrenched in the fiber of your being. It's just so beautiful man.
This really had the feel of the open plains, emptiness and contentment in one. Wonderful.
Beautiful music. Beautiful guitars. Beautiful twang. Thanks again Tiny Desk
I’m getting Tarantino vibes, if they haven’t featured on one of his movies already then they should definitely be on his radar or any movie director worth his salt.
Once again many thanks to the NPR team for finding and introducing me to such musical delights.
:-/ quien no conoce a dios a cualquier santo le reza...
If pulp fiction was a band.
Sadly The Movie Critic will be Tarantino’s final movie. He said he’s done for good after that.
@beefarlee and you believe him?
I could listen to this for hours. How hypnotizing
Estos amigos se la rifan masiso, gracias a ellos me he comprendido más, he llegado a reflexiones sobre mi vida y la realidad. Estaré totalmente agradecido con ellos y sus "creaciones".
This is like a gift from outer space for me …. ✨🚀💫
Beautiful, they are both blessed magicians.❤💫
Absolutely unbelievable tunes
I hear landscapes and travelling, very cool vibes 🙂🙏
La nostalgia hecha música: Ecuador 🗻💞
I found these guys towards the end of 2022 and what a find... such a good vibe. Love this music.
They have that Arizona 🏜️ vibe thing going. Anyhow. It’s dope and chill. Peace hermanos Gutierrez. Bendiciones
This music 🎵 hits my heart gives me goosebumps especially when I am down
They way they move together when they're both lost in the groove is beautiful.
On a commuter train, this made the ride so much better❤
Their sound makes me feel like i'm lost inside a Wim Wenders movie, traveling aimlessly. Majestic!
So cute how they look at each other after every song.
Conheci esses dois moços pelo aleatório do Spotify, e foi amor à primeira "ouvida". Eles me levam a outro mundo, um lugar leve e pacífico. Adoro demais esses dois hermanos ✨🫂
So much soul on these guitars wow!! Every song is a trip
Gday from new Zealand 🇳🇿...very nice music
I've watched this pretty much every day since it came out, it keeps bringing me back.
Love these guys! Their music is so easy to listen to. It’s the kind of music that can be listened to for long periods of time nonstop
Love Los Hermanos Gutierrez. Came across their music in late 2021 and I was blown away. Thank you for what you're putting out in the world.
They were in my top albums in 2020 and 2021, glad they are getting more visibility. They are phenomenal!
Top shelf, amazing sound……no one sounds like them. I’m going to see them for free at the North Miami Bandshell this coming Wednesday
How was it?
