Sofia Kourtesis announced her new EP called Volver coming this summer through Ninja Tune records. The project marks her first release since the acclaimed 2023 album Madres. She already shared the lead single Unidos featuring Daphni and just released the second track Canela Pura.
The artist describes Canela Pura as music about passionate and colorful romance. She talks about new love that feels playful and maybe keeps some secrets. The song helped her discover parts of herself through making music and trying different sounds.
Volver honors the entire LGBTQ+ community and trans women she has met recently. Kourtesis praises their courage for living in a dangerous world full of hatred. These brave people bring hope to vulnerable communities dealing with corrupt systems in Latin American countries.
Recent court decisions have hurt transgender rights across America. Tennessee can block medical care for trans youth after a Supreme Court ruling. The government also plans to shut down LGBTQ+ youth suicide prevention services during Pride month.
Kourtesis believes people must support LGBTQ+ communities during these difficult times. She wants everyone to show love and care for transgender people especially. The world needs these communities and cannot survive without their contributions to society.
