Alicia Ramos

Although she has stated that music is her life, Ramos is also the author of a novel titled El último vándalo (que yo sepa) and frequently writes for media outlets such as Píkara Magazine, Diario Público, ElDiario.es or El Salto. In March 2020, she took over a column in CTXT, which is called the same as her first album, Ganas de quemar cosas.

In 2014, her song Y las flores was the soundtrack of the documentary directed by Fernando Olmeda, El viaje de Carla, about the life of the politician and LGBT rights activist Carla Antonelli, a fellow countryman of Ramos. In August 2015, she released her first album, Ganas de quemar cosas, with ten songs that, according to herself, have never failed her. She was able to do so because the sound technician of a hall where she had performed offered to record it in her spare time without charging her. Lumpenprekariät, her second album, came out in September 2018. The name of the album is a play on the Marxist term lumpenproletariado.

As a result of participating in an open mic whose proposal was to make a song about a current issue every week, she composed two of her best known songs, Mi Amante Urdangarín and Muérete tú dedicated to Christine Lagarde, director of the International Monetary Fund, after she asked in 2012 for a lowering of pensions because of "the risk of people living longer than expected".
