A Troubled Soul with a Gift for Song
Sixto Rodriguez was born in Detroit in 1942, a troubled young man with a passion for poetry and music.

In the early 2000s, a group of devoted fans embarked on a quest to unravel the mystery of Sixto Rodriguez. Their search led them to a Detroit phone book, where they discovered that the enigmatic musician was still alive and well. The news sent shockwaves through the music world, and in 2012, Rodriguez embarked on a triumphant concert tour in Australia, where he was greeted as a long-lost hero.
