Ana Prada is a Uruguayan singer-songwriter and psychologist, born on May 1, 1971, in Paysandú, Uruguay. She began her musical journey at the age of 18, moving to Montevideo to study music and psychology. Prada's career includes collaborations with notable artists like Rubén Rada and Jorge Drexler, her cousins, as well as her involvement in the group "La Caldera" and the vocal quartet "La Otra." Her solo career took off with the 2006 album *Soy Sola*, followed by *Soy Pecadora* in 2009 and *Soy Otra* in 2013.

Her music is known for its emotional depth and poetic lyrics, which resonate deeply with listeners.
