GAY MEN’S CHORUS OF LOS ANGELES, under the leadership of Executive Director & Producer Lou Spisto and Music Director & Conductor Dr. Ernest H. Harrison, is in its 46th year of music and service. GMCLA continues to garner acclaim for artistic excellence while remaining deeply rooted in service to the Los Angeles community and beyond by promoting civil rights, tolerance, and acceptance through music. Founded in 1979 during the emergence of the gay rights movement, GMCLA spreads its message of love and acceptance with concerts across the globe and has raised its collective voice in the movement toward equality, social justice, the fight against the AIDS crisis, the fight for marriage equality, and all those seeking to find their own voice. GMCLA’s free community concert program has provided access to concerts to tens of thousands over the decades, and its research-based education programs have served over 90,000 young people throughout the Los Angeles region. In December 2023, GMCLA brought its beloved holiday concert to the Saban Theatre with Hooray for Holidays and returned in March 2024 with the pop-explosion We Love Boy Bands! In June 2024, GMCLA’s celebrated Pride month with the Season 45 Finale, SOLID GOLD: Aretha, Dionne, & Whitney, at Pasadena Civic Auditorium. In recent years, GMCLA has performed at Carnegie Hall and the Hollywood Bowl (with Hugh Jackman). Reaching global audiences, a GMCLA appearance at the 2020 Film Independent Spirit Awards has gained more than 7 million online views. During the pandemic, GMCLA presented virtual concerts, special events, and school programs, reaching thousands of new and longtime fans. From Los Angeles and Ireland to Brazil and New Zealand, GMCLA’s streaming concerts were incredibly well received. Critics have proclaimed the Chorus “inspired” and “expressive, innovative and utterly moving,” and hailed GMCLA for presenting “meaningful entertainment.”
Glenn Campbell forgive us! It’s time for Country Music to get a GMCLA makeover! Turn the dial up, get out your sequin-studded hats and boots, and head on down to the Saban Theatre. GMCLA’s two hundred fabulous artists will sing, strut and two step to the first ladies, and gay icons, of Country with Dolly, Reba, Shania, Kacey, The Chicks, and more! We’ll also celebrate today’s hippest and gayest artists and allies reinventing Country like Beyoncé, Brandi Carlile, Lil Nas X, and Chappell Roan. There will be new surprises and some old favorites to round out this line-dancing extravaganza. Rhinestone Cowboys will be one for the record books!
