Grammy-nominated Latin singer-songwriter Gustavo Galindo is celebrating the release of his 3rd album Between Two Worlds. The new album finds him as a fully realized artist where his life as a husband, father, and performer have come together in a collection of deeply personal songs. Two singles from the album have been released, “Continentes Distintos,” “Broken Things” and a third called “Princesa,” about his daughter, which will soon have an official music video.
Between Two Worlds can be streamed on all platforms.
“This album really captures a very interesting time in my life as an adult. It starts with a love story and ends with a funeral and covers everything in between. I wanted to make something for people my age or who are going through the transitions life throws at you. Mature relationships, parenthood, therapy, redemption, hope, and fear are all thrown in a blender that can leave so many of us grasping for air before time comes and counts down our remaining seconds. I wanted to make music that would fight against that despair and melancholy of the middle-age American dream by embracing the shadows and messiness that comes with it.” – Gustavo Galindo
“Broken Things” was inspired by ‘Kintsugi’ – the ancient Japanese art of repairing broken objects, often with gold lacquer. The lyrics explore embracing and cherishing the perceived imperfections and fractures within ourselves, our relationships, and our world. “Broken Things” showcases Gustavo's ability to tap into the human experience, encouraging us to see the beauty in what we perceive as broken.
“Continentes Distintos” explores the stage of a relationship where things start to change and you can feel like strangers drifting apart as if you are on ‘different continents.’ Gustavo’s songwriting style and heartfelt lyrics again touch on the human experience we all share.
