American singer/songwriter and guitarist, born July 10, 1942, Detroit, Michigan, USA - died August 8, 2023. Rodriguez released the solo album "Cold Fact" on the Sussex label in 1970. The blues-funk style of his overtly sociopolitical lyrics gained him little popularity in the US, where he once performed onstage with Hispanic activists the Brown Berets. However, his music found a resonance with a fan-base in South Africa, where he became somewhat of a cult legend. He also toured Australia with Midnight Oil during the 1980s. Rodriguez was also known as "Sixto Rodriguez" and was once a Motown session musician. Works include: "Cold Fact", "Coming From Reality", "After The Fact" & "Sugarman: The Best Of Rodriguez". Sixto's brother Jesse (aka [a=Jesus Rodriguez (6)]) co-wrote songs for Rodríguez' catalogue and repertoire.
