Rubia

On Rubia Armik has written and produced twelve compositions in which sultry Caribbean and Latin rhythms meld with provocative old world melodies. The album is titled after a guitar created expressly for Armik by the revered luthier Pedro Maldonado. Nearly 3 years in the making, the guitar was constructed from a rare wood called rubia. So inspired by Maldonado's handiwork, Armik composed two tracks on the album in honor of the instrument and it's maker, Rubia and Maldonado.
