The City of West Hollywood’s WeHo Arts program presents the 2018 Summer Sounds FREE Outdoor Concert Series
Mariachi Arcoiris de Los Angeles
The World’s First and Only LGBTQ Mariachi!
June 24, 2018, 5pm
Plummer Park, 7377 Santa Monica Blvd, West Hollywood, CA 90046
The world's first and only LGBTQ Mariachi brings Mexican music and folklore to Southern California. This unique ensemble was created as a haven for mariachi musicians who identify as LGBTQ to perform traditional Mexican regional music in an otherwise “machista” and somewhat discriminating subculture of the mariachi world. Led by director Carlos Samaniego, Mariachi Arcoiris de Los Angeles performs its repertoire to suit the LGBTQ community while it maintains the highest level of musicality. Mariachi Arcoiris de Los Angeles is proud to have the first transgender female, Natalia Melendez, in the history of mariachi as one of its members.
This event is also presented as part of the City of West Hollywood's One City One Pride LGBTQ Arts Festival. For more information and a full listing of events: www.weho.org/pride.
All concerts are FREE to attend and starts at 5 PM.
Limited first come, first serve seating will be available OR bring a blanket and enjoy the show!
