Niemal zapomniany brytyjski zespół rockowy powstały w 1975 roku w Londynie z inicjatywy Ritchiego Blackmore'a. Przez skład Tęczy przewinęło się paru legendarnych muzyków jak Ronnie James Dio, Don Airey, Cozy Powell, Jimmy Bain, Joe Lynn Turner, Graham Bonnet czy Roger Glover.
Pięć lat temu rockowy dziadzio Riczi postanowił reaktywować zespół w odświeżonym składzie.
