Discover Epiphone’s crucial role in GRAMMY®-nominated Yordano’s musical career
In the latest episode of “Mi Epiphone,” renowned Venezuelan singer-songwriter Yordano opens up about his deep connection with guitars. In this exclusive interview, he reveals how he fell in love with the Epiphone Texan, modified two Epiphone SST Coupes with the help of a luthier, and why his relationship with the guitar has been crucial throughout his career.
Yordano is celebrated for his soulful voice and poignant songwriting, blending Latin rhythms with contemporary sounds. His contributions have left a lasting impact on Latin American music, earning him a dedicated following and critical acclaim.
He discusses his choice of the SST Coupe as his touring companion and his decision to use an Epiphone Texan for recording his most recent album. Taking innovation into his own hands, Yordano transformed his Epiphone SST Coupe into a hybrid guitar with tonal possibilities akin to both an electro-acoustic and an electric guitar.
Yordano also shares how his admiration for The Beatles led him to develop a lasting relationship with Epiphone guitars and reminisces about receiving his first guitar—a 1959 Les Paul Jr—from his father, a gift that ignited his passion for music.
