“Omar Rodriguez Lopez of The Mars Volta will perform in select cities during September 2010, utilizing a small core of players familiar to fans of the prolific guitarist. Joining him onstage as the Omar Rodriguez Lopez Group will be Juan Alderete de la Peña (bass) and Marcel Rodriguez Lopez (keys and percussion), both of The Mars Volta; occasional Volta drummer Deantoni Parks, renowned for his work with Elvis Costello, John Cale, and his own band, Kudu; and Grammy-nominated vocalist Ximena Sariñana Rivera, whose presence on recent Rodriguez Lopez albums such as Solar Gambling and Los Sueños De Un Higado has been met with acclaim from fans and critics alike. The band will perform tracks from the aforementioned albums as well as 2009’s Xenophanes and selections from as-yet-unreleased records, such as Un Escorpion Perfumado. ”

This album is a  FREE download in any file size you like. There is also  the option to donate as well, any and all money donated will go to benefit to  “Keep Music In Schools” programs.

“Meet Zechs Marquise, one of the most badass bands to come out of the Southwest since At The Drive-In. Now let me tell ya, these guys experienced albums like “Acrobatic Tenement” first hand. In fact, two of the dudes in Zechs — Marcel Rodriguez Lopez and Marfred Rodriguez Lopez — are the younger siblings of the infamous ex-ATDI/Mars Volta guitarist Omar Rodriguez Lopez (it should also be noted that Marcel plays percussion in the Volta as well). These gentlemen, along with their childhood chums Matt Wilkson and Marcos Smith, have joined forces to create an instrumental aphrodisiac for your ears that will make your mind cream its medulla.”
