Throughout his treatment, Malo has been open about his experiences, sharing updates and insights into his journey. His bravery and candor have inspired fans and fellow musicians alike, and the country music community is rallying around him as he faces this challenging time.
As fans continue to send their well-wishes and prayers, The Mavericks are putting Malo’s recovery first. The band’s announcement stated that they would keep fans updated on Malo’s condition and any changes to their touring schedule.
