Now, the band have shared two songs from the concert have now been shared to Oficina G3’s official YouTube channel, Ele Vive (below) and Até Quando (above). Take a look below.
Both songs were taken from Oficina G3’s discography; Ele Vive originally appeared on the 2000 album O Tempo, while Até Quando first appeared on the 2002 album Humanos.
The band’s work was an influence on Asato from early in his playing. The guitar virtuoso took to Instagram earlier today (31 August) to share a clip of the recent performance, as well as to share a caption where he thanked both the band and god for the opportunity to finally work together.
