Last month, Valenzuela was nominated for Best Alternative Song for ' BUGAMBILIA ' at the Latin GRAMMY Awards taking place in Las Vegas on November 12.

Ahead of the ceremony, Francisca Valenzuela will be bringing her U.S. tour to Brooklyn, NY at National Sawdust on November 4.

MALDITA is an unapologetically vulnerable, stylish, energetic, dark, moody, and elegant catharsis. More than an album, it is a cultural conversation that transcends language and borders — connecting all those who have felt inadequate, misunderstood, alone, or broken, and who have crumbled under pressure and spiraled into the darkness. The album shatters the fantasy of the performative, patriarchal, one-sided story of motherhood.

Recorded in her home studio in Santiago de Chile, Valenzuela made the album 'to understand and connect with the process - the fact that I am learning how to be a mother and learning how to still be me. All at the same time, all for the first time,' a struggle that most first-time mothers can relate to.
