In this mini-episode, Dónal shares music that influenced the writing and making of TRÚ's second album.

Maro is a Lisbon-based artist who has collaborated with Jacob Collier and represented Portugal at the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest.

Dónal talks about Maro's song "oxalá" and explains why its texture appeals to TRÚ. He also describes the power of a particular language to convey meaning, even to listeners who do not understand the lyrics.
