José Luis is also a prolific songwriter. Famous singers who had recorded songs written by him include: María José, Alejandro Fernández, Camila, Alejandra Guzmán and Pandora, among others.[1]

They chose "Río Roma" as name because they like how it sounds and because it reads "oír amor (hearing love)" backwards.[2]
