The former lead singer of Mecano, Ana Torroja, releases her seventh solo work, titled Se ha acabado el show. At 66 years old, the artist debuts as the composer of all the songs on the album. This project, which she will present at the Teatro Real on July 28, marks her departure from the major record label system, allowing her total creative control.
The creative process behind record label independence 🎵
Torroja has taken full control of production, from composition to distribution. By foregoing a major label, the artist directly manages copyrights and streaming platforms. This model allows for more direct communication with her audience, although it requires greater involvement in technical aspects such as mastering and launch campaign design. The decision stems from a search for artistic freedom.
From the anthem of freedom to the freedom of having no boss 🎤
After decades in the eye of the storm, Ana has decided the show is over... for record labels. Now, instead of arguing with executives about the right single, she can worry about more important things, like deciding whether to record the next music video with her phone or her neighbor's. After all, creative freedom also means deciding which Instagram filter to use.
