Jesse & Joy

About

Also known as: Jesse and Joy, Jesse y Joy

Jesse & Joy are a brother and sister pop duo from Mexico City who built one of the most decorated careers in Latin music. Jesse handles piano and guitar while Joy takes lead vocals and also plays guitar and drums, and together they blend pop with Latin and folk textures in a way that feels both radio ready and genuinely heartfelt. Their third album, ¿Con Quién Se Queda El Perro?, was the real breakthrough: it scored three Latin Grammys at the 2012 ceremony including Record and Song of the Year for the irresistible "¡Corre!", and later picked up a Grammy Award nomination for Best Latin Pop Album. Their fourth album, Un Besito Más, took things even further, hitting number one on the Latin Albums Chart and eventually winning the Latin Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album. The record was produced by Fraser T Smith and Martin Terefe, and the title track was written following their father's death. Around the same time, English versions of songs like "Echoes of Love" landed them playlist spots on BBC Radio 1, showing that their appeal stretches well beyond Latin America.
