I believe it’s the first song where I assimilate my break-up and ask to be healed.”

The new album includes 11 songs that contemplate and celebrate her discount levitra purchase heritage. Silvana grew up in Veracruz in the mountain town of Coatepec with her parents who are both musicians and luthiers.
