MAHALAB are an unusual voice-bass-drum trio formed by Maurício Verderame (bass), Jamila Maia (voice), and Ricardo Saldaña (drums and percussion), who has recently joined the band. Since 2006 Mahalab have been performing frequently in São Paulo, wherever there is space for new music; places such as Vila Teodoro, Clube Caiubi and Caretas Bar; and also alternative spaces, such as soirées and yoga schools. Onstage, Mahalab bring forward their lively personality and envelop the audience in beautiful melody and profound lyrics, all presented in strong, emotional performances that never go unnoticed.
