Julieta Venegas has delighted her fans once again with songs and authentic lyrics linked to her passion for life and human experiences. “I wish for people to connect with what I do- with my music- because it is a form to express myself. I write stories of my life, my way of thinking, and because music is very free, people may take it for their own moments,” the singer-songwriter says.

“It’s a record with a many colors, bright, agile, and that simply flowed. I started composing in September, and in March I was in New York already doing the mixing by VenezuelanHector Castillo. Algo Sucede is a record that includes 12 songs produced in Argentina by Cachorro Lopez, who has a great career and who I have already worked with, and in Mexico with Yamil Rezc, a young talented and independent producer. There’s a great variety of nostalgic themes, full of emotions that go all sorts of ways. Life can always surprise you in a wonderful way or can give you a positive lesson“, says the composer.

Julieta Venegas wanted to comment on some of the songs on this new album:

“Ese camino”

“Talks about childhood, in a view from me as an adult looking back and reflecting on perhaps not a concrete childhood memory, but the sensations, such as certain scents in places that are always present and that remain a celebration“.

“Algo sucede”

“It’s a song talking about things changing, the most beautiful thing about living is that there are always surprises, thing you do not expect. Life can always surprise you in a wonderful way or can give you a positive lesson. The accordion returns, an instrument that describes what I want to tell and that takes me to places that I like very much: in the land, in folk, and is very festive“.

“Se explicara”

“It’s a mother-daughter song, a song that I wrote while I was on vacation. It was wonderful to write to my daughter that I was thinking of her and to tell her that everything will make sense at some point“.

“Buenas noches”

“Talks about dismissing sadness: that there is no more time for the bad. What matters is the future, how life will surprise you, and what happens to you when you least expect it“.

“Esperaba“

“Inspired by the adolescence, it is an escape that music gives you: an ‘I want to leave’ sensation that allows music to transport you”.

“Explosion”

“It was perhaps the hardest song on the record because it expresses what I felt in the times of violence and disappearances in Mexico. It talks about femicide, it’s an expression of sorrow for what is happening and I wanted to capture it in a song“.

After two years, Julieta Venegas, is anxiously waiting to share her new work with her fans and her new followers. “Algo Sucede is a record of celebrating what it is to be alive: life will always teach you things and will always surprise you. Something always happen in life… It will turn tables.. it will show you a lesson..” added the singer.
