Described by the New York Times as a musician whose "lyrics unfurl with a poetic magnetism that blooms in Spanish," Mexican singer-songwriter Silvana Estrada's debut solo album, Marchita, showcases her introspective lyricism that confronts heartbreak and what emerges after anguish. Estrada grew up singing son jarocho music in a family of musicians and instrument makers and later studied jazz at a conservatory before entering the Latin alternative music scene in performances alongside peers Natalia Lafourcade, Mon Laferte, and Julieta Venegas.
~~~~~~~~
Called "one of Mexico's greatest young talents and vocalists" by KCRW's José Galvan, Silvana is the new voice of a movement of independent female artists who have characterized Latin Alternative music over the past decade. She has also been recognized internationally, performing and recording with artists including Uruguayan singer/songwriter Jorge Drexler, Chile's Mon Laferte, Catalan singer Silvia Pérez Cruz and Spanish group Love of Lesbian, as well as Natalia LaFourcade and most recently, Rodrigo & Gabriela.
Raised singing Mexican son jarocho and baroque choir music, and schooled in jazz, she is an iconoclast who dismisses musical trends for a personal, poetic style that goes straight to the heart of listeners.
"My music is made of who I am," she says. By 13, she was performing in local bars (chaperoned by her parents) and within the short few years that followed she truly found her voice.
