Now, Rodrigo has struck out on his own and has released his first solo album, Cavalo, which came out earlier this year. The last time he played D.C.’s Sixth & I Historic Synagogue, he was opening for his pal Devendra, but last weekend he returned to hold the headlining spot. With a day off on his tour, Rodrigo sent his band on ahead to New York while he stopped by the Wilderness Bureau to hang out with us for a few hours.

Check out his performance of “The Ribbon” and “Irene” from his debut album.
