Practically locked in the studio by her closest associates, in a couple of weeks Nelly recorded some quite decent songs that were sent to the representatives of the various record companies. It is them who should we thank for the fact that this time Nelly carried her task to completion. Thanks to them, Nelly Furtado managed to finish her first studio recording, and although the girl’s inconstancy regularly encouraged her to give up her lessons and break into a trip around Europe, producers of this rising star have been determined and inflexible enough. And soon, Nelly met her first producers - they were Brian West and Gerald Eaton, meembers of the Philosopher Kings project. Despite the fact that she won no prizes there, her performance didn't go unnoticed. In 1997, the 18-year-old girl expressed a desire to participate in the vocal competition. In her creative tossing from one musical style to another, from classical to trendy sound experiments, Nelly Furtado has eventually discovered the colorful and diverse world of electronic music, where you can create virtually anything. Nelly took up the guitar, which sounded as good as any other musical instrument in her hands. At the age 17 she went to Toronto and tried her hand at being a member of a little-known musical band for the first time, and after awhile, she got carried away by the good old British rock - calm and melodic. However, Nelly Furtado did not limit her interests to hip-hop and similar genres only.
The impressions from the Portugal trip gave her a powerful impetus for self-improvement and further development of her musical talents. Since that time Nelly Furtado became a true fan of hip-hop and rhythm and blues, she understood, as she thought, the very essence of hip-hop music. During a trip to Portugal she took part in an interesting musical tradition of the "spontaneous singing", when everyone could get on stage, pick up a microphone and start improvising on the go, singing anything that your heart desires. She made her first appearance at the age of sixteen.
In a word, she was carefully and responsibly preparing for showing her talents to the world. In addition to learning and writing songs, she also took lessons in singing and mastered her dancing skills. Nelly dreamed about getting a synthesizer and recording equipment. In high school and college she played the trombone and in her spare time - ukulele, a tiny Hawaiian 4-string guitar. She mastered practically any musical instrument with great ease. When she was twelve Nelly Furtado wrote her first song and began dreaming about the great future that lied ahead of her. At this age, she gave her first stage performance (she sang a duet with his mother). Her passion was noticed by her parents for the first time when little Nelly was four-year old. As it’s a pretty common among the majority of world-renowned singers, Canadian singer, producer and songwriter Nelly Furtado has loved music since her early childhood.
