Mexican born artist Girl Ultra (Mariana de Miguel), has swiftly come one of the leading voices in Latin R&B. Known for her innovative production, relatable lyrics and contemporary beats, Girl Ultra has captured the hearts of audiences both in her native Mexico and internationally.
With one album and three EPs under her belt, GU returns with her new EP ‘blush’ which embodies a whole new palette of sounds that blend dry, clean vocals, bare acoustic guitars, and driving drums with a clubby approach. Recorded and mixed in the vibrant backdrop of Mexico City with an intimate team of close friends, the highly anticipated 7 tracker is a deeply emotive narrative that speaks to the tumultuous intersection of attraction, desire, and melancholy—themes that resonate profoundly with today's youth.
Drawing inspiration from a diverse array of musical and cultural influences, her EP is a nod to St. Etienne, early Björk, Frou Frou, Royksopp’s ‘Melody AM’, Erlend Oye’s DJ Kicks, and Dean Blunt’s gritty sound processing, along with the lyrical stylings of celebrated Mexican artists Ely Guerra and Julieta Venegas.
