Coming Home



Coming Home is the second studio album by Maria Mercado. Which was released on March 29, 2015 under Drakoloid Music Records Inc.

Background
Recording sessions for Coming Home, began shortly after the release of Mercado's previous record Queen Clara. The recording sessions started in July 2015 for this album. Working with many different producers at Drakoloid Music Inc in Calgary, Canada, Maria Mercado recorded a selection of new songs along and by December 2015, had completed all the new songs however Mercado has stated in interviews that some of the material in this record was originally going to be used for the previous record. Mercado wanted a more mainstream feel towards this album with elements of EDM and Electronica Dance tracks unlike her previous release that had mainly ballads and orchestral 50's pop vibe.

Release
Coming Home released on March 29, 2015 and would be available via all digital service providers and a commemorative will be sold exclusively at varied stores. However Mercado didn't do any promotion herself and let her record label fully. In the first week the album was download by 400 customers ranking at #1 on DML for that month. This is also the highest amount of record labels that a Drakoloid star has ever accomplished.
