[Los Angeles, CA – May 2, 2025] – Rising Mexican-American artist Paco releases new single “CANDY.” featuring Alé Araya. LISTEN HERE.
The new track delves into the raw emotional turmoil of love, longing, and heartbreak. Reflecting on a past relationship filled with passion and intimacy, now overshadowed by the ache of separation, and lingering unanswered questions, “CANDY.” captivates with its blend of English and Spanish lyrics, amplifying the emotional depth of love lost.
Paco shares: “Who doesn’t love something sweet? A guilty pleasure some might say is what ‘CANDY.’ ft. Alé Araya is. The sound of something familiar yet new is what this song brings with its genre bending title Latin Funk Wave Pop. ‘CANDY.’ FT ALÉ ARAYA is the first single with this culmination of sounds which leads into the project that digs deeper into this genre. SUERTE.”
