Mala Vita
ESNS: 2012
Their roots can be found in different European countries, places where some of the members had to leave against their will. They know the feeling of displacement that you can hear in new album En Exilio. Mala Vita has been active since 2002 and gained a huge reputation because of their magnificent live shows. Mala Vita sings in Spanish, English, Bosnian and French. Or call it ‘Itañol’, ‘Franglais’ or ‘Bosniano’, because the idiom of the Malavitosi is just as infinite as their music. Powerful melodies from the Balkans, explosive rhythms from Latin America and lyrics straight from the dark Neapolitan alleys. Mala Vita are the gypsies of the 21st century and one of the leading mestizobands of Europe.
