Nelly Furtado |
||
| came from a musical family. she grew up in Victoria, B.C, was singing in both Portuguese and English by the age of four, recording her own songs in a portable tape recorder at the age of eight, and played ukulele and the trombone through her teens while at the same time exploring her new-found fascination with the world of Hip-Hop. Nelly's first professional recording studio experience was at the age of 16, when she performed session back-up R&B styled vocals for a Toronto Hip-Hop group, It was these experiences, coupled with her strong musical ability, her understanding of musical technology, and her open-mindedness towards different styles that gave Nelly Furtado her unique sound. It will be interesting to hear what she has to offer a decade from now, considering the talent and originality she has displayed thus far. |
