Growing up outside of Bogotá, Colombia, Silva loved both Rihanna and Mercedes Sosa, and her musical education includes jazz and traditional Latin folk. Yet for most of her childhood, she says, it was a struggle to hear any contemporary music at all. It was only when Silva moved to Los Angeles at the age of 18 that her universe began to expand. Everlasting, her debut album, covers the landscape of 21st century rock with dazzling, genre-blurring ambition. Throughout Everlasting, Silva mines both her childhood memories of growing up in the countryside and her experiences as a young adult to create poetic, painterly music that makes sweeping allusions to love, sexuality, and femininity.
