Following a surreal campaign that blurred the lines between reality and satire, Argentine trailblazers CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso have officially released their highly anticipated new album, FREE SPIRITS. Out now via all major streaming platforms, the project arrives as a defining moment for the duo, cementing their status as one of the most unpredictable and inventive acts in global music today.
The release of
the CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso FREE SPIRITS album marks a
significant evolution from their previous work. If 2024’s PAPOTA introduced
a wider audience to their singular universe, FREE SPIRITS expands
it with sharper edges and deeper emotional resonance. Across the 12-track LP,
the duo stretches their signature blend of trap, rock, pop, and left-field
spectacle into something bigger and more emotionally unguarded, maintaining the
volatile humor and musicianship that have made them a global phenomenon.
A Star-Studded Tracklist and the FREE SPIRITS
Center
The FREE
SPIRITS album release follows a wildly creative rollout centered
around the fictional FREE SPIRITS Center, a holistic retreat conceptualized by
none other than featured guest Sting. The legendary musician is unveiled as the
unlikely architect of this retreat, serving as the thematic backbone for the
album’s narrative.
The project
features an impressive roster of global collaborators, including:
- Jack Black on the raucous single “GOO
GOO GA GA”
- Sting on “HASTA JESÚS TUVO UN MAL
DÍA”
- Anderson .Paak on “Ay Ay Ay”
- Fred again.. on “Lo Quiero Ya !”
The album’s
accompanying short film offers fans a deeper look into the “groundbreaking
techniques” of the FREE SPIRITS Center, channeling themes of ego death,
absurdity, and personal reckoning into an audiovisual experience that is both
wildly entertaining and unexpectedly revealing.

The Rise of CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso
For those just
discovering the duo, CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso are widely regarded as the most
original force to emerge from Argentina’s music scene in the past decade.
Friends since childhood, their journey began in primary school before forming
the progressive rock band Astor in 2011. By 2019, they debuted as a duo, fusing
trap, hip hop, and pop with an unpredictable twist.
The momentum
leading up to the FREE SPIRITS album has been monumental. In
2024, they captivated global audiences with their NPR Tiny Desk Concert,
followed by the conceptual EP PAPOTA. The duo’s touring schedule in
2025—the PAPOTA Tour—included over 60 dates across four continents, with
standout performances at Coachella, Glastonbury, and a U.S. television debut
on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
Their accolades
are equally impressive. PAPOTA earned the duo their first
GRAMMY® win for Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album, alongside a historic
sweep at the 26th Annual Latin GRAMMY® Awards, where they took home five awards
from 10 nominations—the most ever for an Argentine project in a single year.
With FREE
SPIRITS, CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso continue to push boundaries,
solidifying a legacy that bridges Latin alternative music with global pop
culture.
