Luis Segura (born in Mao, Dominican Republic year 1939), is a popular traditional Dominican singer who refers to himself as 'The Father of Bachata'.[1] He is considered one of the best interpreters of traditional bachata with hits like "Pena por ti", "Dicen", and "No me celes tanto". Segura's first recordings were in the 1960s but it wasn't until his release of "Pena por ti" in the early 1970s that Segura hit stardom.[2]
