![]() What’s your plan after that? Are you going to leave us again? I know you have some shows lined up through the end of the year. Honestly, I thought that I was going to start from scratch again because I did leave for a couple of years but I didn’t, it’s been like I never left so it’s been amazing. I’ve made decisions just to become a better person and have a better human experience. I feel a little more emotionally prepared because I have worked a lot on myself, I went to therapy and I also went into psychedelic therapy. It’s been so overwhelmingly positive seeing that people love my songs and most of my shows have been sold out. I didn’t know if people would still like the type of music I make. Honestly, when I got back to touring, I never imagined that people would be so nice to me because there’s a lot of reggaeton, modern music, and I’m so cheesy. I feel like I came back to music in a very beautiful way. ![]() If we’re talking about your Renacimiento, it’s been only a year and a half since you were reborn. Right?! Right?! When she said Renaissance was her album I was like “We’re alike, we’re alike!”īut her Renaissance it’s like super cool. Random thought but your album, it’s called Renacimiento, the Renacimiento before Beyoncé’s Renaissance… It’s going to be a beautiful show and because it is a huge place, we had to make it special. We’re gonna add some strings - I think a string quartet - and then we’re gonna have some backup singers and a whole outfit exclusively made for The Bowl, so I’m excited. How do you go from a show at intimate venues like the Saratoga Winery to such a big place like the Hollywood Bowl? It’s fine.” But now that it’s freaking days away, I’m nervous but excited. When they told me that I was going to perform there, I was like “Oh, yeah. I know, I know! I’m a little nervous, but I’m very happy. You’re going to have a Hollywood Bowl on Saturday! How are you feeling about that? It’s like, ‘Wow, we’ve come such a long way.’ I never imagined this. “For me, as a Mexican woman, I think that it is a very positive message to perform there. Many of us think that we can’t get to those places,” she tells Rolling Stone. “Mexican people and Latine culture sometimes feel like some of those spaces aren’t for us. On Saturday, she’ll play one of her biggest shows yet: She’ll headline the Hollywood Bowl, an accomplishment she still hasn’t fully processed. But after dropping her highly anticipated comeback album last year, she interrupted her daily routine to perform her tear-jerkers and pop tracks on the road during a lengthy tour. “It’s a very simple life,” she tells Rolling Stone. Instead, she’ll spend her days prepping recipes for the week, going grocery shopping for the ingredients, and squeezing in time at night to phone her mom and close friends. She’s the genuine article-a doomed, spectral torch singer, incandescent with longing, desire, and grief.Carla Morrison has gotten used to living the “ señora lifestyle.” Since stepping away from the public eye to make 2022’s El Renacimiento, she’s created a world where she isn’t always thinking about big crowds and dropping new music. The obvious comparison is to Lana Del Rey, but Morrison is not performing a persona. Un beso” (“I’m going to steal from you / I’m going to kidnap from you /. During the chorus, she makes a predatory promise: “Yo te voy a robar / Te voy a secuestrar /.

The first sign of transformation was the Wagnerian title of her new album, “Amor Supremo” the second was the drama of its first single, “Un Beso” (“A Kiss”). Or, at least, that’s how it used to be-recently, Morrison’s music has changed in a thrilling way. “Let me cry alone, I want to get this off my chest,” she sings, during the chorus of “Déjenme Llorar.” There’s humility to her heartbreak-a lightness to her sadness that makes it magnetic. She fills festival tents with her lilting, acoustic songs about love gone wrong. In Mexico, though, she’s a star, with two Latin Grammys and a gold-certified album, “ Déjenme Llorar” (“Let Me Cry”). She sings in Spanish, and so isn’t well-known in the United States.
