Mafilika
A mutual desire to play and preserve traditional Malawian music led to Mafilika’s formation in 2007. Currently based in Lilongwe, The different backgrounds and cultural roots of band members inspired Malfilika’s musical style, which fuses each band member’s personal music tastes into a blend that mixes rock with roots and jazz with alternative.
In August 2008 Mafilika participated in the Music Crossroads Inter-Regional Finals held in Lilongwe, Malawi. From May/June 2009, Mafilika toured the Netherlands and Mozambique, performing at the Independence Music Festival in Maputo.
Locally Mafilika has worked with organizations such as UNICEF, PSI and Plan International as entertainment group during the respective organisations’ nationwide tours.
