Lucrecia Dalt

A prolific and limitless musician, performer, composer, and sound artist, Lucrecia Dalt challenges both genre and form, pulling apart familiar elements of pop and experimental music and reassembling them in unexpected ways.

With Dalt’s new single, “cosa rara,” featuring mixing, production, and a rare performance by cult music legend David Sylvian, the subject of one’s self becomes an unlikely infatuation. Distilling the highs of love, sonically translated with production precision and hyper focused clarity, “cosa rara” is a bold return for Dalt, inviting listeners on a thrilling escapade of sound and psychology.

“The lyrics paint an urban experience of the sublime” notes Dalt. “A deliciously lurid scene between two lovers, reveling in each other’s presence so fervently that they create a wild magnetic force field, attracting all sorts of delightful chaos around them. They disrupt the fabric of reality, with anomalies seeping in from the edges of perception.”

Breaking through to a wider audience with her acclaimed 2022 album ¡Ay!, Dalt has also made a name as a composer for film and TV, including her original, acclaimed scores for HBO’s series The Baby, Cannes 2024 feature film winner On Becoming a Guinea Fowl, and the forthcoming psychological horror Rabbit Trap which premiered at Sundance last week.

Working on this next chapter of her own music in tandem with her scores has been Dalt’s real obsession, which manifests in wild, widescreen detail on “cosa rara,” her first solo offering since ¡Ay!. “cosa rara (ft. David Sylvian)” is the first signal of sound in this new era, to be followed by some additional, and surprising, music before the full cosa rara EP release in digital and 7” editions on February 28th.
