Though he’s gone, his spirit echoes in every performance as the band—still anchored by guitar legend Perez and drummer Paul Deakin—joins forces with longtime collaborators James Otto and Emily West to carry the vocals. With horns, accordion, and soulful melodies, they honor Malo’s legacy not by replacing him, but by celebrating his genius and the music that defined them. The journey began even before his passing, fueled by Malo’s own urging to keep the band alive and release unreleased gems. Fans are invited to witness this moving evolution at their upcoming Houston show, where the band proves that love, loss, and music can all live on together.
