biography
Os Malinos are a zés-pereiras group from Alto Minho, with roots in Arcos de Valdevez. They were founded in January 2006 by brothers César Barros and Vítor Barros, with the aim of preserving and celebrating the traditions and culture of the Minho region.
With bombos, caixas, concertinas and gaitas de foles, they bring popular music to pilgrimages, festivals, parades and processions, accompanied by gigantones and cabeçudos. They have performed in Portugal, France and Spain, and are a regular presence at events such as the Feiras Novas de Ponte de Lima.
