The Manic Boys and Girls Club perform… by not performing

We first met Manic Boys and Girls Club backstage at the International Portuguese Music Awards last year. This time, Fernando and Bela weren’t there as performers. They were there as friends, fans, former performers, and part of the community that keeps coming back year after year. They sat down with Tony Gonçalves to talk about what they’ve been building since our first conversation, why imperfection has become part of the band’s identity, the difference between creating music in the studio and performing live, and why the moments that go sideways are often the ones people remember most.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
