Not For Radio

Not For Radio marks a bold new chapter for Zardoya, offering a raw, introspective counterpoint to her work with The Marías. While the band continues its rise following their 2024 breakthrough Submarine - which earned them a Grammy Best New Artist nomination, reached No. 17 on the Billboard 200, and delivered their first Hot 100 single, “No One Noticed”- Not for Radio asserts a distinct creative identity of its own.

Released in October 2025, the debut album ‘Melt’ peaked at No. 13 on the Billboard 200 - a powerful feat for a solo project. The ten-track record is an alchemy of grief, solitude, and creative communion, unfolding in real time as Zardoya, alongside artist-producer Sam Evian and producer/instrumentalist Luca Buccellati, unplugged from the outside world and immersed themselves in nature and sound. The result is a deeply transportive body of work that positions Zardoya not just as a vocalist, but as a multidimensional force with a singular vision.
