Nada Rosa - \\u201cReversal of Fortune" from the 2023 album Nunca Te Olvido on OTHERWORLDS

Based in Seattle, but with roots in\\xa0the Dominican Republic,\\xa0Brandi Diaz celebrates her family with her musical project\\xa0Nada Rosa. As she told KEXP Staff Reporter Martin Douglas back in June, the band name traces back to her beloved\\xa0abuelito (or "grandmother"), who has passed away: it\'s a combination of her grandmother\'s name with the Buddhist concept\\xa0of non-attachment.\\xa0\\u201cAnd that\\u2019s when I started moving forward with music in a more intentional way,\\u201d she explained.

And the title of her\\xa0debut EP,\\xa0Nunca Te Olvido, pays tribute to her grandfather, who tells her as much over the phone when he calls. As she says on Bandcamp, the phrase translates to "I never forget you" or "You\'re always in my heart."\\xa0

"This whole project is me learning how to love myself and the power of love between friends, between family,\\u201d she tells KEXP.
