Ya Es Hora is the fourth single from Eljuri’s second solo album ‘Fuerte’ released by Manovill Records and Discos Intolerancia in Mexico. Ecuadorian singer-songwriter Eljuri, is touted as one of the top Latina guitarists in the world and has been a member of the Gibson family of guitarists since 2008. Fittingly, socially conscious musician, Mario Muñoz (Doctor Krápula) contributes a signature rap to the song. Co-produced by Eljuri and multiple Grammy winning producer Gustavo Borner (igloo music), the stellar production of the song supports the intensity of its message.
Eljuri believes that “to those from whom much is asked much must be given. Now is the Time (Ya Es Hora) for all US citizens to stand behind those who sacrifice the most in the name of our country’s freedoms. We should actively support initiatives that increase benefits for service members and their families.”
Eljuri’s powerful rock fusion, soaring guitars and relevant lyrics inspire the fight for individual freedom. Her lyrics motivate a diverse audience from young children, to a vibrant youth and seasoned music lovers of all ages and cultures. She was born in Guayaquil, Ecuador, raised in NYC, and tours internationally.
The Ya Es Hora video to be released June 27 National PTSD Awareness Day, features Eljuri as witness to the challenges faced by a soldier home from war, his body broken and his home life shattered by Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. The stunning video brings awareness to the serious nature of PTSD and Depression.
