Talented Sergio Vargas is primarily a merengue singer, but has also earned acclaim for his ability to sing other forms of Tropical music. He was born in the Dominican Republic and got his start singing with the local group La Banda Brava. In the early 80s, he had begun working with one of the country’s most popular merengue artists, Dionis Fernández. Vargas founded his band, Los Hijos del Rey, in 1986 and by 1988 had become a major star throughout Latin America. He remains one of his country’s top artists.

Milly Quezada, Latin Grammy-winning Dominican Merengue music singer, is known to many as The Queen of Merengue. During the 1980s, Quezada was the lead singer of a group named Milly y los Vecinos. The group enjoyed international success, producing 20 records, but Quezada later decided to embark on a solo career. In 1998, she was the winner of Billboard Award as best female performer tropical. Her latest release “MQ” and includes the famous hits “Vamo ‘pa’ la calle” and “Quiero Ser.”
