Azúcar y Sal blends jazz, funk, and rock/pop, with touches of classic rock.

Recorded from October 2020 to October 2021 and produced by Allison Salazar, this is the debut studio album from Mexican vocalist Ellie De la Fuente.

​

The album narrates a familiar love story—full of bittersweet moments—tracing the arc from first infatuation to eventual separation.

The title track, “Azúcar y Sal,” is a nostalgic piece that contrasts the depth of love you can feel for someone with the disappointment that the high expectations of a new romance can bring.

​

Originally written in 2016 by Allison Salazar, the song was later co‑authored by Ellie in 2020, who contributed fresh vocal and lyrical arrangements.
