“Malecón Melancholy” – Vuzz Releases Their Most Intimate Single Yet

Vuzz is proud to announce the release of “Malecón Melancholy,” the final single from our upcoming second album and one of our most personal songs to date. Written in Havana during a wedding trip for close friends from New Orleans, the song sits at the crossroads of joy, loss, and the search for belonging.

While celebrating in Cuba, we found ourselves surrounded by beauty—friends, music, and a stunning city—but the experience resurfaced the ache of leaving behind the people and places that shaped us. We’d moved from our “soul city” to New York, and beneath the celebration was the shared weight of transition, distance, and reinvention.

As we wandered the Malecón—a long, iconic seawall overlooking the water that connects Cuba to the United States—we pondered the history of Cuban immigration and the lengths people go to in pursuit of a better life. It struck us how universal that feeling is: crossing cities, states, countries, or oceans, all in the hope of opportunity, safety, or renewal.

“Malecón Melancholy” lives in that emotional space—the ache of farewell and the small but persistent flicker of hope that guides us forward. It’s dedicated to anyone who has left someone or something they loved to take a chance on the unknown.

We’re incredibly proud of this one.
