Women of Tejano: Past, Present, Future

September 29, 2018 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Veronique Medrano’s presentation explores the impact of women who were part of famous Tejano and Conjunto groups, or solo acts. Her presentation will address achievements, leadership, courage and strength of the women who laid the foundation for the acceptance of women in the genre. And, to close the presentation, Medrano will provide a perspective on women in the industry who are currently vital to continuing the legacy of the Tejano music genre.

Medrano is a native of Brownsville, Texas, and graduated from the University of Texas-Pan American in 2013. Following her graduation, she debuted her first full-studio album “Encantadora,” which was the first Tejano/Regional Mexican album to be crowd-funded online. This album earned Medrano a nomination for Best New Female Artist at the 34th Annual Tejano Music Awards in 2014.
