Spanish singer Ana Torroja presented “Rosa del desierto”, the fourth and last preview before the release of her new studio album, scheduled for March 20, 2026. The project marks a special moment in her career, as it is her first album entirely composed by herself, consolidating her facet as an author and reaffirming her weight in Spanish-language music.
“Se ha acabado el show”, “La maleta” and “A veces” preceded this new single, which delves into a more introspective and personal narrative.
The meaning behind “Desert Rose”.
Ana Torroja explained that the inspiration comes from the mineral formation known as the desert rose.
A natural structure that arises in extreme conditions when sand and gypsum come together over time.
“The desert rose is a natural formation that is born in extreme places… it always seemed to me a very powerful image,” shared Ana Torroja.
Over the years, this image became a metaphor for his own life:
Experiences, challenges and the passage of time as layers that shape identity.
The song was co-written with the artist Samurai and represents an emotional journey through her personal history.
The central message combines fragility and strength, two elements that have marked both his solo career and his time in Mecano, the group with which he achieved international fame.
2026 Tour: confirmed dates
The release of the album will be accompanied by an international tour in 2026 that will include performances in cities such as:
Valencia, Mérida, Toledo, Barcelona and Castellón, as well as confirmed dates in Chile, Mexico and Colombia.
Although the official announcement details dates in Spain and Latin America, the solid base of Hispanic fans in the United States maintains expectations about possible presentations in the U.S. territory.
Something usual in previous tours of the artist.
In her concerts, Ana Torroja will combine new songs, such as “Rosa del desierto”, with great hits from her solo repertoire and Mecano classics, offering a renewed show.
