Born in Acapulco, Mexico, Rafa Soto is a multifaceted artist and creative leader with over three decades of
experience in the music and entertainment industry.
He began his musical journey at the age of seven and has since become a master of string instruments, specializing in flamenco guitar, Paraguayan harp, and piano. He has studied under flamenco master Antonio Rey, a disciple of the legendary Paco de Lucía, bringing a depth and authenticity to his performances that reflect his diverse Latin roots.
Rafa has lived in the Coachella Valley for 27 years, becoming a key figure in the region’s cultural and

In 2025, Rafa founded and became the creative director of PSA TV, the first bilingual digital media channel accredited by FIFA to cover all World Cup events. With operations based in California and Santiago de Chile, PSA TV is building a bridge for cultural, artistic, and sports exchange between continents, opening new markets and elevating voices across Latin America.
He is also the General Director of Coachella Soccer Club, representing the Coachella Valley in the
