No me busques


No me busques is the EP's first single, in collaboration with Emm Silverio. In a world in constant need to increment the level of "reasoning" at all levels, the song is an attempt to put into perspective the need for love without interests, without conditions. Adriana Garcell's art with the cello guides a simple but at the same time deep melody. Like true love.

Avioncitos de papel


The EP's second single is a collaboration with Kristie. Avioncitos de papel is a fusion between pop rock and country, something somewhat rare in Latin music. It tells the story of a childhood love, the one that frequently occurs in the classroom and is never forgotten.
