Background notes

Archive material and source history

Jorge Drexler was born in Montevideo, Uruguay, in 1964. He released his debut album 'La Luz que Sabe Robar' in 1995, which established him as a songwriter to watch in Latin American music.

His 2004 album 'Eco' brought wider recognition, particularly when its song 'Al Otro Lado del Río' won the Goya Award for Best Original Song. Songs like 'Todo Se Transforma' and 'Tinta y Tiempo' show his tendency toward thoughtful, often philosophical lyrics that touch on social and environmental themes.

Drexler has worked with artists like Caetano Veloso and Lila Downs, and his music draws from folk, rock, and various Latin American rhythms without settling into any single genre. He continues to write and record, with albums like 'Salvavidas de Hielo' from 2017 and more recent tracks like 'Tocarte' with C. Tangana.
