Silvana Estrada has announced her second album, Vendrán Suaves Lluvias. The Marchita follow-up is set to arrive on October 17 via Glassnote Records. Listen to the gorgeous lead single ‘Dime’ below, and scroll down for the album cover and tracklist.
Lifting its title from Sara Teasdale’s 1918 poem ‘There Will Come Soft Rains’, Vendrán Suaves Lluvias was recorded between Montréal, Barcelona, and Mexico City. It was written entirely by Estrada, with orchestral arrangements by Owen Pallett (Frank Ocean, The National, Haim).
“Vendrán Suaves Lluvias is the album I’ve been working on for the past two or three years,” Estrada explained in a statement. “The songs were born little by little, some since the pandemic, others more recently. It encompasses my search to find myself and my vital energy. This project was born from trying to turn discomfort into hope, from not stopping to see the light despite the rage.”
She continued: “From the first song to the last, I tried to create a journey that connects us with joy and movement. I wanted strength and hope to be the guiding thread throughout the album.”
Vendrán Suaves Lluvias features the previously released tracks ‘Lila Alelí’ and ‘Como Un Pájaro’. “The freedom to choose the sounds I wanted initially terrified me, it seemed like an immense and impossible place to begin,” Estrada said. “But when I allowed myself to listen attentively to my instincts and embraced that freedom, a sincere and transparent world slowly began to form. This album is filled with learning, with love, and with the beauty of being human, even in our hardest moments.”
