Be Patient

By Javier Custardoy

Be Patient

“Be Patient” is one of the most intimate and meaningful songs by Spanish indie-pop artist Eva McBel. With production and mixing by Javier Custardoy, member of the Latin Recording Academy, the track dives deep into the idea of emotional heritage passed across generations: what we carry from our mothers, grandmothers, and the stories that quietly shape us. It is a song about patience, resilience, and learning how to embrace both love and pain as essential parts of our identity.

Musically, “Be Patient” blends Eva’s warm and delicate voice with a subtle yet powerful arrangement. Acoustic textures are interwoven with elegant brass sections (trumpet and trombone), heartfelt piano lines, and carefully layered background vocals that add depth and richness. The rhythm section, with live drums and bass, creates an organic foundation that grounds the track while allowing the melodies to rise. Every instrument was recorded with precision, placing Eva’s voice at the very center of the mix.

The production and mixing choices are intentional and emotionally driven. The arrangement never overwhelms the message but instead gives space to the lyrics — a reflection on unspoken words, unfinished moments, and the silent advice carried through family bonds. Eva McBel wrote the song from a deeply personal place, and the collaboration with Javier Custardoy brought out both the intimacy and the strength of her vision. The mix highlights clarity and balance, allowing the listener to connect instantly with the emotion in her voice while being enveloped by the instrumentation.

“Be Patient” is not just a song; it’s a storytelling experience. It speaks to anyone who has felt the weight of the past and the hope of transformation. It’s an invitation to slow down, to find meaning in patience, and to honor the invisible threads that tie us to those who came before us.

This single also reflects Eva McBel’s artistic evolution: moving from her folk-indie roots into a more expansive sound that touches indie-pop, soul, and even cinematic influences. With the support of talented musicians and Javier Custardoy’s expertise in both production and mixing, the result is a piece of music that feels timeless and universal.

For new listeners, “Be Patient” is the perfect introduction to Eva McBel’s artistry: emotional honesty, poetic songwriting, and a voice that resonates with authenticity.
