It was the mutual desire to play and preserve traditional Malawian music that led to Mafilika’s formation in 2007. The different backgrounds and cultural roots of band members inspired Malfilika Band’s musical style, which fuses of each band member’s personal music tastes into a blend that mixes rock with roots and jazz with reggae each song packed with youthful energy and inspiration! Mafilika represented Malawi at the Music Crossroads InterRegional Festival 2008 and although they didn’t win, they rocked audiences so hard that the Malawian people have sat up and are taking notice of this firey local talent. Mafilika has been touring throughout the country, performed at Malawi’s biggest international music festival ; Lake of Stars, and recently crossed the national borders. They made a 17 concert tour in The Netherlands in Spring 2009, booked by Mundial Productions. The tour was a resounding success , which put Mafilika on the map without a doubt. In spring 2010 the band returned to Europe again after winning a musical competition lead by the World Bank & Jeunesses Musicales International, where they performed and participated in the Fairplay Youth Voices campaign against corruption. Mafilika: Ernest Ikwanga – Guitarist & lead vocals Jizammy Lingani – Bassist & backing vocals Sam Mkandawire – Keyboardist & backing vocals Amos Mlolowa – Drummer Paul Chawinga – Percussions & backing vocals
