Have any of you heard of a band called Xalam? I saw them play live some years ago at the Womad festival in Reading UK. I have a CD of theirs but would like to have more. They seem to have disappeared, or I'm not looking in the right places. I heard a rumour that one of the members had died and they split up afterwards, but I don't know if it's fact or just hearsay. Any info would be gratefully received.
