YARGE Will Release CARA LAVADA Single Ahead of Debut Album
Argenis Ruiz produced the track, with mastering by Grammy-winning engineer Mike Fuller of Fullersound.
Venezuelan singer-songwriter YARGE presents 'Cara Lavada,' a new single that captures the moment after a breakup when distance brings clarity, revealing what remained hidden while the relationship was still unfolding.
The song was written by Yargelis Ruiz (Yarge) alongside her brother Argenis Ruiz, who also produced the track. It was mixed by Moisés Valera and mastered by Mike Fuller, a Grammy-winning mastering engineer and founder of Fullersound. Fuller's extensive discography includes work with leading Latin music artists such as Daddy Yankee, Ozuna, J Balvin, Bacilos and Maluma, as well as international icons including The Eagles, Bee Gees and Rod Stewart.
'Cara Lavada' arrives on digital platforms on August 20 at 7:00 PM Argentina time.
Following the release of 'Desinterés,' her previous single about the emotional toll of a relationship in which love and effort were not reciprocated, 'Cara Lavada' introduces a new stage in the story Yarge has been building through her music. This time, it is no longer simply about accepting the end of a relationship, but about seeing it from a different perspective, recognizing it for what it was and moving forward.
With a performance that balances emotion and attitude, Yarge gives voice to the moment when heartbreak stops being just a wound and becomes an opportunity to reclaim one's sense of self-worth. The chorus of 'Cara Lavada' captures that confrontation with someone who tries to act as though nothing ever happened, while Yarge makes it clear that she knows the story far too well to believe it again.
The track continues to reveal a new side of Yarge while further defining an artistic direction rooted in everyday emotional experiences, transforming them into songs that feel intimate, relatable and deeply personal.
