HERMANOS GUTIERREZ - LOS OJOS DEL CONDOR (YELLOW/RED COLOURED) VINYL

Hermanos Gutiérrez, Swiss-Ecuadorian sibling duo of Estevan and Alejandro Gutiérrez, have announced their new album Los Ojos Del Cóndor, out September 25, 2026. Produced by Dan Auerbach at Easy Eye Sound studios in Nashville, the 10-track album draws the duo's cinematic guitar work more directly toward their South American roots, trading the wide-open spaces of the American West for the rhythms and textures of the Andes — a vivid new palette of sounds and influences from the continent that shaped them. 

Throughout a decade and six albums, Hermanos Gutiérrez have built a distinctive language through their intertwined guitars, blending Latin sounds, surf, western flourishes and melancholia. Los Ojos Del Cóndor turns that sound homeward, drawing on their mother's native Ecuador and their great-grandmother's Peruvian heritage alongside Argentinean milonga and Peruvian-Colombian cumbia. That sense of place runs from the opening call of "Canto Andino" to the galloping rhythms and lap steel of the title track.

The brothers named the album after that song, feeling it best captured the record's sensation of flying high over the landscape, like the condor of the Ecuadorian flag. "The condor is the bird of the Andes," said Alejandro. "It's like seeing something from that perspective and appreciating the beauty."
