CANTON STAND BAND
The Malakites are an indie rock outfit formed in 2019 from Cardiff, comprising lead singer Jacob Webber, Daniel Rizzo on bass, Thibault Segrott on lead guitar and Woody Gray on drums. The band has been credited as one of the most promising and exciting indie bands in South Wales in recent years.
As Cardiff City Season Ticket holders, three out of the four members attended the same high school, Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Glantaf, which has strengthened the bond and chemistry between the group; Thibault and Jacob also attended the same primary school. As heard on Radio Wigwam as well as many more radio stations, their music and unique sound has been widely applauded.
The band has featured as a support act for renowned British bands such as Circa Waves and The Ks in sold out gigs at Tramshed and appeared at Shiiine On Weekender, BBC 6 Music Fringe, Y Not & Isle of Wight festivals.
