summary

Y La Bamba released new 'Lucha' LP under Tender Loving Empire.

SITUATION

Publicity around their new LP release

Our PR department worked with Y La Bamba for the release of their seventh album, 'Lucha' via Tender Loving Empire Records – our third release with them in five years.

SOLUTION

PR campaign that encapsulates the meaning of 'Lucha'.

The PR team collaborated with Y La Bamba and the management team to define the narrative of this album, exploring multiplicity—love, queerness, Mexican American and Chicanx identity, family, intimacy, yearning, loneliness—and chronicling a period of struggle and growth for lead vocalist and producer Luz Elena Mendoza Ramos as a person and artist.
