About The Mavericks
Fusing traditional C&W with a rich variety of rock, pop, and Latin influences, the Mavericks became one of the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful country acts of the early '90s and have continued to explore different styles and sounds over a long, interesting career. They hit their stride with 1994's What a Crying Shame, a grand showcase for the rich, emotive vocals of Raul Malo, and edged from country into a fusion of Latin and pop flavors on 1998's Trampoline. The band spent most of the 2000s on hiatus, yet they still held on to a loyal fan base who embraced their enthusiastic eclecticism. Releases like In Time (2013) and Mono (2015) strongly emphasized their Latin and pop accents, but they still bore the trademarks of Malo's vocals and the group's expressive, creatively restless approach. 2024's Moon & Stars added back some of their pop influences of the 1990s. Malo, whose voice helped to define the Mavericks' sound, passed away in December 2025.
