Melt is the debut solo album and alternate reality from María Zardoya, the lead singer and songwriter of the Grammy-nominated indie-pop band The Marías. The idea began with a question, which came to Zardoya while isolating in the snowy hills of Upstate New York: Is love worth the pain? As if under nature's spell, Zardoya transformed her winter heartache into a collection of intimate psychedelic ballads, imbued with a touch of gothic romanticism. Puddles, My Turn, Moment, Back to You, Swan, Not the Only One, Magnet, Vueltas, Water On Your Nose, Slip
