Racketeer Radio KFQX The New Golden Age of Radio
Mala Vista had a jam-packed 2024, full of electrifying performances, an acclaimed sophomore album, and a ground-breaking music video. The NYC-based band, known for their high-energy rock sound, released their highly anticipated second album Fun Time in 2024, followed by a whirlwind of U.S. tour dates and a thrilling tour across Spain.
Their live shows set the stage for unforgettable moments at some of the coolest NYC parties, including performances at Jonathon Toubin’s famous NYC Night Train events. But even with their packed schedule, Mala Vista found time to create their very first music video for the track “Don’t Owe You,” a standout from Fun Time.
Directed by first-time music video director D.C. Dufrane, the video embraces the raw, unfiltered energy that Mala Vista is known for. “We’re keeping it unpretentious, no frills and punk,” Dufrane said, a sentiment that perfectly captures the spirit of the band. Shot with a simple, direct approach, the video mirrors the band’s ethos—rocking out and having fun without overcomplicating things.
Mala Vista, comprised of Myke Miranda (lead vocals/rhythm guitar), Manny Dominguez (bass/backing vocals), Erik LAMF (lead guitar), and Ben Heymann (drums), continues to push the boundaries of rock ‘n’ roll, capturing the essence of what it means to be a true New York City band. With Fun Time, they’ve solidified their place in the scene, and with this new video, they’re showing fans exactly what it means to keep it real.
