The TiMaria are from a small town in Portugal but that doesn’t stop them from making big sounds that betray their humble HQ. “TiMaria” (rural Portuguese for “Auntie Maria”) started out as a band name before there were any band mates. The name was created to fill space while designing a concert poster. Forgetting to erase it before the posters went to print André Moihno was left with a dilemma: throw them away or just form a band to put the posters to use. Well, you can guess what he chose, and we thank him for it. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/TiMaria">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
