Silvana Estrada on the difficult road to making her 2nd album

For her sophomore release, Mexican singer-songwriter Silvana Estrada intended to write an album that showcased her sense of humour. But after experiencing immense personal loss and tragedy, she instead made a record that examines love, grief and humanity. It’s called “Vendrán Suaves Lluvias” (or “Soft Rains Will Come” in English) and it’s out now. Silvana sits down with Tom Power to talk about her acclaimed new album and the difficulties she faced while making it.
