Tarantola is London based singer-songwriter and producer that connects with audiences through collaborations and highly energetic shows! The band includes musicians and guests from different countries, cultures and heritages as part of a family where cultural diversity is celebrated as an essential form of connection and exchange.

Their music combines modern reggae beats with soulful and catchy melodies mixed with bouncy dancehall rhythms and sounds reminiscent of South Italy and the Mediterranean. 

Their shows combine high-energy performances, intimate moments of interaction with the crowd together with captivating songs that will not let your feet keep still!

Mauro Lacandia, (lead singer, songwriter and producer) straight from Salento, (The Jamaica of Italy)  seeks to recreate the legend of “Taranta” (the traditional music from the boot of Italy): the spider that bites people and brings them to a state of trance that can only be cured with music, dance and love!

Tarantola expands their musical web with each release, collaborating with established artists such as Awa Fall, supported by the Italian Reggae Ambassador Treble Lu Professore (former Sud Sound System, Boomdabash, Mama Marjas) and The Sound Of Everything.
