She started to play in the year 2007, and has released one album called “Atardecer” (Sunset/ Independent, August 2009).

She is currently working on her second album, that it's going to be more minimalistic in the composition. It will be produced by Manuel García, one of the most important singer/songwriter in Chile.

In addition to her music, Rocío is also one of creators and the founders of "Twitsessions: Música Sin Fronteras" (Music without boundaries).
