Originally a drummer, Dominican merengue tipico artist
Agapito Pascual started his own folk band in the late '80s. His rootsy update of merengue's traditional sounds made him a success in and outside of the Dominican Republic.
Pascual's albums include
El Mamon and Frente A Frente, which also features the work of his contemporary,
Ciego De Nagua. ~ Heather Phares
