THE BAND

MAE

It all begins with an idea! Melinda, affectionate known as Mae or Mae Mae, was blessed to grow up amongst a plethora of diversity.

With exposure to such rich cultural backgrounds, Mae developed a love of many different genres of music. Rock, Pop, Soul, R&B, Salsa y Merengue, Reggae just to name a few.

After several years working with amazing musicians, her dream was to SING IT ALL, so she thought, “why can’t I?” and there came the BIRTH of Knowstalgica……

GILBERTO

Gil’s love for music started at a young age when he lived in Detroit with the Motown experience all around him. He always had a small am radio in his ears. Music has always gotten him through tough times. Gil’s Bass playing training started when he was 15 years old.

Gil’s main influences have been James Brown. R&B, Soul & Funk is what grooves Gil the most!

JULIO

Julio enjoys playing all genres of music. Julio began my music career in early 70's. Julio’s motto is "play from the heart and not always from the chart!"

SERGIO

Sergio, aka SergDaDrummer, is the driving force behind the drums for Knowstalgica. 

SergDaDrummer brings groove, power, and a strong stage presence to every performance. As both a producer and performer, Sergio brings more than solid musicianship to the band—he brings a deep understanding of arrangement, energy, and what makes music connect with people in a live setting. His approach behind the kit is rooted in feel, discipline, and the ability to help push a song exactly where it needs to go.

Over the years, he has developed a style that is both tight and expressive, balancing precision with soul. He understands that great drumming is not just about keeping time—it is about creating movement, emotion, and impact. That instinct has made him a key part of Knowstalgica’s live sound as the band continues to build momentum and expand its presence.
