JMB is ready to play at your next Show
The Johnny Malo Band has been around for about a decade playing shows from Phoenix to Flagstaff, from Prescott to Sedona and beyond Arizona entertaining guests at a great resort in Puerto Penasco Mexico. JMB has a set list that expands from the 60's to today's classics from Rock'n'roll to Funk without disregarding the Blues. All the covers have a unique sound due to the eclectic reinterpretation of the Band. JMB is a basic Power Trio but collaborates with other pro musicians and can create an event expanding the members with Keys, Horns or percussion but preferers a 3 piece for the freedom of interacting with a crowd.
