Founded in 2017, Mariachi Sirenas made history as Chicago’s first all-women mariachi ensemble. With soaring vocals, vibrant harmonies and the exhilarating interplay of violins, trumpets, guitars and guitarrón, the award-winning group brings tremendous warmth and energy to the traditions of música regional mexicana. The Sirenas have appeared at the Taste of Chicago, Fiesta del Sol and Millennium Park’s Jay Pritzker Pavilion, while their 2025 anniversary concert at the National Museum of Mexican Art played to a sold-out audience.

Co-founders Ibet Herrera and Eréndira Izguerra created Mariachi Sirenas after searching unsuccessfully for an all-women mariachi group in Chicago. What began with a rehearsal on International Women’s Day has grown into both an accomplished musical ensemble and a powerful sisterhood—one that honors mariachi’s roots while opening doors for a new generation of musicians. Their name, “Sirenas,” evokes both the beauty of a mermaid’s song and the unmistakable power of women making themselves heard.
