In April 2018, she released a second EP, La Sandunguera, with Everlasting Records, which spawned the singles "La Sandunguera" and "Estoy Triste". She later embarked on a tour with her band Big Menu that had over a hundred concerts, including gigs at BBK Live, Sónar and the Festival Internacional de Benicàssim. The tour visited Spain and selected parts of Europe and Latin America. She was nominated at the Independent Music Awards (MIN) for Song of the Year and Best Music Video for "La Sandunguera" She also received the Discovery Artist award at the Latin Alternative Music Conference in New York City.[8]

In December 2019, Peluso signed a record deal with Sony Music Spain. Her first release as a signed artist was the independent single "Copa Glasé".

In 2020 she reached the attention of the general public and the mainstream audience after Operación Triunfo contestant Anaju sang "La Sandunguera" on prime time to keep participating on the show.[12] After that, Peluso was invited to the show on Women's Day to promote her new single "Business Woman", defined as a feminist anthem.[13] During the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Peluso released a musical collaboration with urbano artist Rels B titled "No Se Perdona", which had great commercial success. Another single "Buenos Aires" was released shortly after.[14] It received critical acclaim for its message and sound and scored a Latin Grammy nomination for Best Alternative Song. She also received a Premio Gardel and a Latin Grammy nomination for Best New Artist.[15] She was also covered in The Guardian for the first time.[3]

In September 2020 she announced that she would be releasing her debut studio album Calambre on 2 October and released a new single "Sana Sana".[16][17] Briefly before releasing her album, her performance of "Sana Sana" at the German music platform Colors "which features exceptional talent from around the world" went viral on Twitter, reaching over twelve million views.[18] Calambre was released to critical and commercial success, peaking at number five on the PROMUSICAE album chart.[19] The album was later nominated for Album of the Year at the Premios Gardel (the Argentine equivalent to the Grammy Awards) as well as for Best Alternative Pop Album.[20] Its single "Buenos Aires" also received a nomination for Record of the Year. In November she collaborated with Argentine producer Bizarrap in "Bzrp Music Sessions Vol. 36", which eventually became viral due to its lyrics and instrumentation, reaching the top 5 on the Argentina Hot 100.[21] It is certified platinum in Spain. The rap session received three Premios Gardel nominations, one of them being Song of the Year.[22]

In 2021, the music video for her next single "Delito", directed by Agustín Puente, met praise from critics.[23] The song became a top 30 hit both in Argentina and Spain and was certified Gold in the latter one.[24] Later in March, she received critical acclaim for her performance of "La Violetera" at the 35th Goya Awards.[25] That same month, she collaborated with Karol G on "Gato Malo", included in the Colombian's third studio album and sparked rumors about a possible future collaboration with J Balvin.[26][27]
