In this brilliant video performance, Gabriella Quevedo plays a fingerstyle version of The Eagles’ “Hotel California” on her Taylor acoustic guitar. This is not exactly an easy song to play on guitar, but she certainly makes it look that way. She plays the song so effortlessly; her technical skill and natural rhythm give this classic an impressive new spin.
Her fingers smoothly flit across the guitar strings, and notice that besides playing the vocal melody and guitar chords, she’s also able to play the classic bass line and the backup melodies as well. This girl is using her guitar to mesh together an entire band’s worth of parts into one instrument. It just might be one of our favorite renditions of “Hotel California” ever. Glenn Frey would be proud.
