Thank you to everyone who was present and brought the great vibes on this freezing night in New York City. Grateful for all involved.
The first Bahia Experimental Lab just happened in NYC — and it was magic.
Building a space where ancestral wisdom meets contemporary creation is never easy, but it’s always worth it. Bringing together people from different backgrounds, cultures, and musical languages feels like purpose.
Gratitude to everyone who showed up. Special thanks to the @thirdwindrecordsnyc and @angelitasorlando for the support. 🪘🙌🏾

A primeira edição do Bahia Experimental Lab acabou de acontecer em NYC — e foi mágica.
Construir um espaço onde a sabedoria ancestral encontra a criação contemporânea nunca é fácil, mas sempre vale a pena. Reunir pessoas de diferentes origens, culturas e linguagens musicais soa como propósito.
Gratidão a todos que estiveram presentes. 🫶🏽❤️🔥
