Ialma

The singers of Ialma collect and study the popular songs of their ancestors from Galicia, in North-West Spain. Today they bring us this repertoire in their own personal way, going from authentic to modern. Ialma also uses Wallonian, Flemish and European influences. The band has five female singers and five musicians. The lyrics and traditional Galician melodies go very well together with other styles of music, as gypsy music, flamenco and latino.
