Our filming for RTPi’s “A Hora dos Portugueses” continues. Last week we interviewed Sandy Miranda, the bass player for Fucked Up, one of the most prolific and international punk/hardcore bands from Toronto, winner of the Polaris Prize in 2009 (nominated again in 2012). We sat down with Sandy on the stage of the legendary Horseshoe Tavern and talked about her experience growing up as a child of Portuguese immigrants from Pico and Viana do Castelo, and how that has impacted her music career.
Here are a couple of videos of Sandy and her band mates in action:

Sandy is also a photographer. You can find some of her work here:
