La Ley returns with passion: ‘This is our moment’ | VIDEO
In the midst of the intense 90s hit “El Duelo” featuring Ely Guerra, La Ley said they would love to venture with artists Alicia Keys or Carla Morrison for a possible duet.
For Chile’s rock band La Ley, having the opportunity to delight fans once again after a 9-year absence is a truly wonderful pleasure.
“For any artist that performs before an audience that is eager to see them and really appreciates the fact that you’ve separated and gotten back together, is something beautiful for us,” lead singer Beto Cuevas told VOXXI about their first performance in the U.S. after nearly a decade.
Guitar player Pedro Frugone said they decided to come back to the music scene this year because it was a gut feeling.
“This is the moment,” he said. “This is the time that things are happening and we are very thankful.”
Beto Cuevas and Pedro Frugone, along with drummer Mauricio Claveria, formed the GRAMMY-winning Chilean rock band with a trajectory that began in 1987.
Following their split in 2005 to pursue solo projects, the iconic Latin alternative rock band surprised everyone by making a powerful comeback that includes a new production called “Retour.”
The album is a compilation of their best hits in their long-running trajectory, including “Mentira,” “El Duelo,” “Dia Cero” and “Amate y Salvate.”
“It wasn’t difficult to select the songs for the album,” Cuevas emphasized on the process of choosing the 17 songs that form part of “Retour.”
“We picked our best singles, it was common sense.”
The singer added that the album includes songs that were not singles, but were hits among the fans.
The fresh production, which drops May 13, is home to a new track called “Olvidar,” which Cuevas said was inspired by a break up his son encountered.
“The song is melancholic, and it’s something that happens with love every day.”
The guys currently embarked a promotional U.S. tour, where they will visit cities such as San Francisco and Los Angeles.
As for future projects, they have the spark to compose a new album with unedited songs.
“What we most want is to play,” Frugone said, letting it be known that La Ley is here to stay.
