Many talented artists converged to create this project, most notably David Campbell (Beck, Alanis Morissette, Train, Rolling Stones, et. al) for her arrangements and string conduction. Campbell is a 33-time Grammy winner and two-time Oscar winner. On keyboards, you will find Patrick Warren, of Fiona Apple fame.

The new album is composed of 12 stories which she personally penned and performed. carina gives us thus this ?viaje personal?, starting with the already released single ?Angel y Demonio?. In it she tells us of human dichotomy, our ability to be both loving and hateful, of the pain we feel equally, and the options we have in choosing our life path.

The video for this single was shot in Los Angeles with a talented production team. Directed by Pedro Castro, photography by Oscar Lobo and Pedro Castro, and with the participation of stellar Mexican actors like Demian Bichir and Yareli Arizmendi.

It is also important to stress that while this Latina Rock Singer is no stranger to the music scene, this third project could be characterized as her new start, artistically. An album tour will commence in Mexico, and visit the United States before traveling into the International scene.

In this ?viaje personal? carina shows us, through passion and dedication, her commitment to her music.
