Alternative Pop from Macarena

Hailing from Amsterdam, Macarena is an artist who fuses elements of soul, R&B and pop with a touch of Latin influences and reflective lyricism to create her own original sound. From an early age she had a love for music instilled in her via listening to jazz with her father which she later paired with her writing talent gained from penning poems as a teenager.

As she developed as an artist, in 2017 she was ready to unveil her sonic vision with her debut single linking up with producer RINZ on the track titled “Mind”. The following year she dropped her debut EP with Rebirth before working with producer Lady Groove on her 2020 single “Something New” which landed in multiple Spotify editorial playlists as she continued to release exciting music that provides a safe space for her listeners, framed by her LGBTQ life experiences.

When the pandemic struck and forced the world into lockdown, Macarena used the time to reflect and focus on her musical evolution. After a string of stellar releases over the last year, she brings us her latest work with the new single titled “Paradise”.

Spinning a delicate and laid back R&B vibe full of piquant sonic textures, luscious lead vocals and Erykah-esque harmonies, with “Paradise” Macarena crafts an alluring alternative pop outing. With a gently grooving rhythm from a shuffling beat, she caps the single with her beautiful soulful voice revealing her recent prowess of writing lyrics in English on a stunning new single from a thoroughly talented artist.
