Since when do you evolve in music?

Music has always been a passion and a hobby for me. I have had several musical projects (mostly covers) with friends in styles ranging from folk trio to rock band. Since 2018, I have been developing the solo project Bubar in which I find a pure folk essence.

I listen to a lot of different styles of music, rock, jazz, metal, film music, etc. But it's American folk that inspires my music for Bubar. But it's the American folk music that inspires my music for Bubar the most.

What is the unmentionable song you sing in your shower?

I don't really sing in the shower much more in my car. As for the unmentionable songs, if you feel like singing them you should be proud of them, even if it's the latest pop soup heard on the radio.
