"This artist—outspoken and acid-tongued—is a trilingual American (Catalan, Spanish, and English). A woman who takes the initiative, speaks her mind plainly, and seizes the first opportunity to put on her own show, she has been labeled with all sorts of epithets—including "bad woman" and "abnormal"—precisely because she breaks free from the conventional, "proper" mold.
"Rachel Arieff certainly doesn't lack a sense of humor. She uses it to play with our perceptions of what constitutes a "good" woman versus a "bad" one—all viewed through the prism of her wild, zany humor and interspersed with songs like *Gilipollas* (Asshole), *Me pasaste ladillas* (You Gave Me Crabs), and *Pervertido en la playa nudista* (Pervert at the Nudist Beach). You know what to expect when you come to see an artist who, after being called "bad" and "abnormal," embraces those labels and transforms them into a show you shouldn't miss—especially if you aren't yet familiar with this resourceful showwoman and prominent figure of the underground scene."
