Diosdado Gaitán Castro demands greater diffusion of his music
In an interview, Diosdado criticized the low diffusion of shows involving Andean music.
“It is very difficult for us, the artists, to carry out our own events, organize them, produce them, convene the artists, hire a venue, pay taxes,” the singer told a local media outlet.
