Silvana Estrada joins host Stephen Kallao

Silvana Estrada’s latest album is called Vendrán Suaves Lluvias. It’s Spanish for “There Will Come Soft Rains”. It became an affirmation for the Mexican musician in the wake of her best friend’s death. She talks about finding the courage to make music again, and the late Ranchera icon who helped her. Plus, Silvana Estrada performs live.
