Hold That Spirit, due out August 11, was funded with Zaragoza’s wedding savings after ending her engagement. The 12-song collection is a profound statement on her journey to celebrating a vibrant intersectional identity as a woman of mixed Indigenous, Asian and Hispanic heritage. Around the time of her 2021 breakout NPR Tiny Desk Concert, Zaragoza began to assemble a group of collaborators for this new album, ending up with a cast of powerful female producers, engineers, instrumentalists, and co-writers alongside her. Together, they explore the beliefs too-often forced on young women – how their lives should unfold, how they should appear to others, what success should mean to them – as a way to fully break free. Zaragoza recently unveiled lead single “Joy Revolution” with MILCK, which serves as a radiant thesis statement for the forthcoming record. Watch the “Joy Revolution” official music video here.
NPR Music described Zaragoza as a musician “unafraid to deliver incisive social and political messages,” and UpWorthy praised her “tenacious feminist anthems [that] support women of color.” She gained recognition in 2016 with “In The River,” which was written to protest the Dakota Access Pipeline. Her 2020 female empowerment anthem “Fight Like a Girl” advocates for reproductive rights, while her single “Red” spotlights domestic violence and the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women organization, and “The It Girl” calls for colored women to have greater representation in the media. Zaragoza also writes the music for Netflix’s ‘Spirit Rangers,’ a show featuring an all Native American writers room and cast, which just returned for its second season. Her work outside of music has included collaborating with (and serving as an ambassador for) Graduate Hotels, Faherty, Taylor Guitars, Thundervoice Hat Co, Sennheiser and Patreon.
