'''Banda Briganti''' A recent addition to the local folk scene, Banda Briganti enlace catchy tunes to witful lyrics, with a punch.  In recent years Maltese folk has gone through a revival with various artists and groups trying their hand at different styles.  Promoting the roots, like [[Għana]], is important but to keep folk alive and kicking artist must explore other avenues and express themselves in a contemporary way.  
'''Banda Briganti''' is a Maltese folk duo, who first appeared in 2012.
