Welcome back to the sala, mi gente!

In this week’s emotional episode, we’re joined by Dominican-Mexican indie-pop artist Ambar Lucid, the voice behind Garden of Lucid and her upcoming EP El Jardín de Lágrimas, dropping May 9. She opens up with us about growing up between New Jersey and the Dominican Republic, her father’s deportation, and how music became her way to heal.

“Music is how I survive — it’s how I process the things that were too heavy to speak out loud.”

In this heartfelt and powerful conversación, you’ll hear:

• How her father’s deportation impacted her identity and shaped her music career
• Her journey with mental health, therapy, and healing generational trauma
• How she built a loyal fanbase by sharing her story through bilingual indie-pop
• The lessons she’s learned navigating the music industry while staying grounded in her truth
