Since the beginning, Isabel Ramírez has allowed rage to guide her songwriting. Five years ago, when her solo project La Muchacha began to take form, Ramírez looked inward for clues to the sound she sought to create. She realized she was angry. “I would ask myself, ‘Why do so many things bother me? Why does the news bother me so much?’”

In the span of a few years, Ramírez has made a career for herself singing about topics most local musicians steer clear of. Her three albums—the latest of which, More Raw Songs, was released this year—follow her brand of confrontational lyrics, paired with an acoustic guitar and folkloric rhythms. The songs are bold and unafraid to dive into the social crises that afflict Colombians

Isabel will be joined on our stage by a full band, we are looking forward to hear what she will be bringing us.

“When I think of these songs, I think about fading flowers in vases, melted candles, getting older, being on tour and having things change while you’re away, not realizing how ephemeral experiences are until they don’t happen anymore, fear for a planet we’re losing because of greed, an ode to art and music that’s really shaped your life that can transport you back in time, longing to maintain sensitivity and to not sink into hollow despondency.”
