Musical adventures

Now that’s a fun fact! From my teenage years through early adulthood, I was fairly active in the music scene in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. I played bass in jazz, pop-rock, rock and metal bands, and even recorded an album professionally, as well as a few EPs and demos.

Those were good times!
