Dellafuente releases his new album: ‘Lágrimas pa otro día’

After several years of silence, Dellafuente begins a new adventure with the release of his eighth studio album, ‘Lágrimas pa otro día’ (MAAS).

Through eight tracks, the man from Granada embarks on a sonic journey through different parts of the world such as Mexico, Cuba, Jamaica and, of course, Spain, to explore new references that will set him apart from the sound he has built throughout his career. Bolero, urban, corridos tumbados, bossa, salsa, reggae and bachata collide with his Andalusian roots in this album and make it a globally plural project, solidifying Dellafuente’s artistic figure as one of our country’s most valuable cultural assets.

The “timeless folk music” grows up and enters a more experimental path, resulting in the fruit of many voices that take Chino’s vision to another plane. Lágrimas pa otro día’ is not a clash, it is a contrast of many elements that make sense through the artist. Apart from collaborating with regular figures in his career such as Antonio Narváez, the credits also feature names such as Rusowsky, Ralphie Choo, Dinamarca, Vatocholo or Ané Carrasco, jewels of the international emerging scene.

Almost 20 minutes are enough for Dellafuente to show us what he has been working on all these years. “Cuando la cosa no me va buena”, “3 Caras”, “El camino”, “Ni soy santo”, “Carameloraro”, “Sharila”, “No te lo niego, ma dolío” and “Pa llorar” are the songs that make up the artist’s eighth studio album. A great variety of styles that combine with the essence of Granada, the “salero” and the personal lyrics to which we are accustomed. Music that will go down in the history of the music industry in our country for combining tradition and avant-garde in equal parts.

Last December, Dellafuente presented a new show in Granada that brought together more than 22,000 people over three days. With tickets sold out in just a few minutes and a simple tweet as an announcement, the concert served as a prelude to the album he is releasing today, which will tour festivals throughout the summer. The new live show completes the journey that begins with ‘Lágrimas pa otro día’ and is proclaimed to be one of the most ambitious events of his career, with film production and 50 people working on each date.
