Background and recording
Norma is a concept album that explores the different stages of love, with each song telling part of a story of the relationship. The title for Norma comes from the artist's first name (Norma Monserrat Bustamante Laferte), which she disliked but used it to show that in her love life always follows the same "norma" (norm).[3]
Norma was recorded in a single session at Studio A of Capitol Studios in Los Angeles, California, on 16 June 2018. The recording was made in a single shot, without using the overdubbing technique of layers of audio. Still, all the instruments were played simultaneously to give the material the sensation of live recording. 13 musicians participated in this recording. Omar Rodríguez-López was in charge of production, while the recording engineer was Bruce Botnick.[3][4][5]
