Mayalde is a traditional music group with an ancestral flavor that has specialized in recovering the music of the soul for 45 years. Listening to their concerts is almost indescribable, because the world of sensations they provoke is endless. Blending life and art, Mayalde is formed by Eusebio and Pilar, founders of the company, and for about 20 years, their two children, Arturo and Laura, have joined them, who have felt a responsibility to continue this cultural legacy, the history of the people, the music of the Earth.
They have released around 14 albums, the most recent being NANAS CON NÁ and NCA MAYALDE, the latter recorded live in 2019. Mayalde turns 45 in 2025 and, continuing their career, they are reopening their home and inviting the public to travel back to their childhood, to snuggle up next to their grandmother, to go out into the streets of their town through memories, flavours, textures, colours, sounds, songs, stories and oral tradition history.
The originality of the group Mayalde lies in making music out of anything, seasoned with all those stories and songs heard from the lips of the elderly, from history and rhythms that remain only in memory and recollection, and which they strive to preserve as honestly as possible. Their concerts seem like an archaeological adventure, delving into the memory and the depths of their audience to bring forth the roots that connect them to the Earth.
Their shows feature a charming staging, using any everyday object, from spoons, chamber pots, sewing machines, mops, shears, bones, accordions, cauldrons, pans, shovels, watering cans, oil cans, lids, bagpipes, and more. These are the instrumental foundation. Their capacity for innovation and research grows daily, and year after year, new instruments, toasts, legends, and stories delight the audience, who are eager to become part of the show.
