'El Gato Negro' was born into a family full of musicians and has carried that torch forward for more than seven decades.
Ruben Ramos performs in the Laboratorio concert on Feb. 27, 2022, at Stateside at The Paramount in Austin.
To say that his family was a musical one feels like a bit of an understatement. His father played the fiddle and his mother would bust out her guitar at family gatherings. His mother’s 10 brothers grew up playing together and, upon returning from World War II, the brothers reunited again to form the band Justin Perez and His Ex G.I.’s.
That training during their youth allowed Ramos and his brother Alfonso to cut their teeth and earn their stripes in the music business. It wasn’t long before his sibling was setting out on his own endeavor with the formation of the outfit Alfonso Ramos y Su Orquesta, in which Ruben Ramos would play drums and occasionally sing songs in both Spanish and English.
After a few years, the name of the group was altered to The Texas Revolution in an attempt to appeal to both English- and Spanish-speaking audiences, and by this time Ramos was becoming a star in his own right.
