Sixto Rodriguez Booking Agency Profile

Book Sixto Rodriguez for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Sixto Diaz Rodriguez, better known as Rodriguez, is an American singer-songwriters, guitarist, poet, excavation worker, and demolition worker. Although he is American, Rodriguez has more of a successful career in South Africa, where he is believed to have sold more records than Elvis Presley.
Rodriguez is a child from Mexican immigrant parents, and because of this in most of his songs he takes a political stance on the difficulties of inner-city poor. When first starting his career, Rodriguez wasn’t selling many copies of his albums in the United States, so after a few years he quit music and tried running for public office for the Detroit City Council, Mayor of Detroit, and for the Michigan House of Representatives, all unsuccessfully.
When he started to catch fame, his albums were being playing significantly in Australia, Botswana, New Zealand, South Africa and Zimbabwe. Some of his most popular songs include, “Sugar Man”, “Cause”, “I Wonder”, “Rich Folks Hoax”, “I Think of You”, “I’ll Slip Away”, “Hate Street Dialouge” and “Inner City Blues”.
Rodriguez was one of the main points for the documentary film “Searching for Sugar Man”, which was about Rodriguez being rumored in South Africa to have committed suicide and how his South African fans went to find the information on if the rumor was true or not. The documentary went on to win awards from the BAFTA and the Academy Awards..
