Santiago Menendez-Pidal, managing director of Warner Chappell Music Spain, said about the signing: “Jorge is an absolute legend with an army of fans across Spain, Latin America and well beyond. He is also the go-to partner for some of the biggest Latin artists in the world. I’m so excited to be working with him and know that his upcoming album is going to make a huge impact.”
Born in 1964, Drexler released released two albums in Uruguay in the early 1990s before getting his “big break” after Spanish songwriter Joaquin Sabina invited him to Madrid to collaborate with a wide range of artists.
Most recently, Drexler’s COVID-19-inspired “Codo Con Codo” was nominated for best song at the 21st annual Latin Grammys.
