I don’t remember how I got this band. I think I was looking for more Spanish music from countries I had few artists from. These two are from Peru and the album this song comes from is one of the most calming and relating to nature than anything I’ve heard in a long time. It’s got no distortion and two wonderful vocalists who annunciate really well. I always feel I’m on the edge of the Amazon rainforest when I listen to them.
To be honest I don’t listen to the lyrics much on this. The title means María Weaknesss and it’s about a woman who seems to be daydreaming and doing regular things throughout the day but a lot going on in her head.
This song is also unique as it features tempo changes, string harmonics, yawning and a gentle flow even though it’s led by a simple picking pattern throughout the song aside of the slower section where they bring in a trombone and violin.
I listen to this song I think, “What a wonderful life.”
