    Led by director Carlos Samaniego, Mariachi Arco•Iris de Los Angeles performs its repertoire to suit the LGBTQ+ community while also introducing beautiful Mexican folk music to new audiences. Just in 2023 alone, The Los Angeles Rainbow Mariachi received 2 awards for the work and message of inclusivity that they promote through their passionate music.
