This month on the Metropolitan Culture Corner, we interview publicist, music journalist, author and poet Alicia Rodríguez. As a music publicist, she has represented some of Spain's top artists (Nat Simons, Elefantes, A Contra Blues) and has promoted tours by world-renowned international artists such as Van Morrison, Simple Plan, The Jayhawks, Jackson Browne, Yes, Lucinda Williams and many others. Alicia has also worked in production and communication for festivals (BBK Bilbao Music Legends, Rock Fest, Primavera Sound, Sónar) and cultural exhibitions such as David Bowie Is at the Barcelona Museum of Design. As a journalist, Alicia has contributed to some of Spain's leading music magazines—Ruta66, Rockdelux, MondoSonoro, Popular1 and more—as well as radio stations, television stations, newspapers and other publications.
Besides her talent for promoting others, Alicia is a published poet, and is planning the release of a book of short stories later this year or early next. She also teaches summer classes at music production school SAE in Barcelona, organizes the annual educational sessions School of Rock for the Universitat de Barcelona, and is involved with numerous programs for La CIBA, a women’s resource center in Santa Coloma de Gramenet.
