"Jesse & Joy are probably some of the purest, most talented artists of our generation", wrote Latin Times.

The Huerta Uecke siblings were born in Mexico City to a Mexican father and American mother, this is why Jesse & Joy have dual citizenship, American and Mexican. In 2001, inspired by their parents love for classic, rock and folk music, when they were 18 and 15 years old respectively, they began writing music and songs with their father using instruments from his church, which they attended as children.

Jesse & Joy released their debut album Esta Es Mi Vida in 2006 under Warner Music Mexico. Their debut single "Espacio Sideral" was certified gold by the Asociación Mexicana de Productores de Fonogramas y Videogramas (AMPROFON), while the album reached the top twenty on the Mexican Album Chart and was certified platinum by the AMPROFON, helping the duo to win the Latin Grammy Award for Best New Artist the next year.

In 2008, Jesse & Joy released Esto Es Lo Que Soy, an EP featuring "Espacio Sideral", "Ya No Quiero", "Volveré", "Llegaste Tú", and the title track "Esto Es Lo Que Soy".

Jesse & Joy released their third studio album ¿Con Quién Se Queda El Perro? in 2011. The album included singles "Me Voy", "¡Corre!", and "La de la Mala Suerte" and was certified 2× platinum, the album received six Latin Grammy Awards and five nominations, as well as the group's first Grammy Award nomination for Best Latin Pop Album.

At the 2012 Latin Grammy Awards, Jesse & Joy were nominated for four Grammy Awards, winning three of them: Best Contemporary Pop Album for ¿Con Quién Se Queda El Perro?, and Song and Record of the Year for "¡Corre!". Additionally, together with Carlos López Estrada, they received the Latin Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video for directing "Me Voy". ¿Con Quién Se Queda El Perro? also received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Latin Pop Album.

At the end of 2015, the pop duo released their fourth studio album titled Un Besito Más, which went to Number One on the Latin Albums Chart.

Un Besito Más earned four Latin GRAMMY® Nominations in the categories Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Contemporary Pop Album, winning this last one.

Shortly after, the duo released their first-ever English songs "Echoes of Love" and "More Than Amigos", which extended Jesse & Joy's reach to the United Kingdom when they were playlisted on BBC Radio 1.

The Independent in the UK described album opener "Echoes of Love" as "true to their Latin/folk roots while introducing distinctly Adele-style epicness to the vocals".

In mid-2016, Jesse & Joy gained mainstream attention with the release of their first dual-language album, Jesse & Joy, which contained English versions of songs from their past four studio releases and biggest hits such as "Corre! (Run!)", "Espacio Sideral (Outer Space)", and "Ecos de Amor (Echoes of Love)".
