Check out Rodrigo y Gabrielle. iTMS has a couple of albums for sale, featuring some excellent covers of Stairway to Heaven & Orion. I hope to see them on tour this year, and recommend any lover of good rock/ world music to do the same.
I should give credit where it's due ... Kartik showed me this artist's MySpace page back in March. I was totally blown away by the cover of Orion.
Update: More video goodness.
You should get the album .. the version I have comes with one dvd of a concert, where they play both orion and stairway to heaven ... the girl, you find out through the course of interviews, is psycho .. they started out in a trash metal group in mexico .. which explains why during the concert you see the guy in a slayer t-shirt.
