CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso have added another major milestone to their meteoric rise, winning Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album at the 2026 GRAMMY® Awards for their explosive project PAPOTA. Hitting the stage with a striking new look, the Argentine duo used the moment not just to celebrate, but to quietly signal the beginning of a bold new chapter.
The victory builds on the duo’s historic dominance at the 26th Annual Latin GRAMMY® Awards, where they made history with 10 nominations — the most ever earned by an Argentine project in a single year. By the end of the night, CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso walked away with five major wins: Best Short Form Music Video for “#TETAS,” Best Long Form Music Video for PAPOTA, Best Pop Song for “EL DÍA DEL AMIGO,” Best Alternative Music Album for PAPOTA, and Best Alternative Song for “#TETAS.” The sweep cemented the duo as one of the most creatively fearless and culturally resonant acts in Latin music today.
Riding that momentum, they quickly returned with “GIMME MORE,” a high-voltage single that examines the intoxicating pull of ambition and the nonstop pace of their ascent. The track’s cinematic video picks up straight from their Latin GRAMMY® triumph, following the pair into a surreal, anything-goes afterparty. Scenes unfold across the MGM casino floor, a helicopter ride over the city skyline, and a final desert ritual where the duo sets their former stage design ablaze. Performing in front of the flames, CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso visually close the PAPOTA chapter while ushering in their next era.
Their dual GRAMMY® victories cap off a breakout run fueled by the viral impact of their Tiny Desk performance, the genre-blurring PAPOTA EP, and the massive PAPOTA Tour. The tour marked their most ambitious global run yet, spanning more than 60 shows across four continents and landing them on some of the world’s most iconic stages, including Coachella, Glastonbury, Roskilde, Fuji Rock, Outside Lands, Montreux, and six editions of Lollapalooza.
With international awards, viral performances, and a rapidly expanding global fanbase, CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso have officially crossed into a new tier of global influence. As the PAPOTA era burns bright in the rearview, the self-proclaimed Latin Chaddys are already accelerating toward whatever comes next.
