It is often thought that women are less dedicated to the genre of Bachata, but that is just NOT true! Women have been playing and creating alongside the men since the inception of the genre. However, they have not gotten much recognition for their contributions over the years. More recently, there’s been a boom of young, female artists who are thriving and reclaiming their space in Bachata.
