Mexican Songwriter and Producer Silvana Estrada Shares Her Heart And Finds Joyful Melodies

Soundcheck | Oct 30, 2025

The Mexican singer Silvana Estrada made an immediate impression with her debut LP Marchita back in 2022. Quickly hailed as a unique voice in Latin music for her blend of jazz, chamber music, and traditional folk, Estrada took her time making her follow-up album, and it appears to have been time well-spent: Vendrán Suaves Lluvias, or “there will come soft rains,” is a heartfelt, elegant, quietly melodic album full of songs about love, lost love, and what it takes to just keep on keeping on. Silvana Estrada performs some of these latest songs in intimate arrangements on cuatro, accompanied by musician Joe Grass on guitar and pedal steel, in-studio. 

Set list: 1. Dime 2. No Te Vayas Sin Saber 3. Good Luck, Good Night
