Here, Packman explores the complexities and idiosyncrasies of glocalized musical tradition in Salvador da Bahia Brazil. He focuses about the work of being a musician in Salvador, a culturally rich but economically challenged state capital in the Brazilian northeast. In this urban center of nearly three million residents, music making in the local scenes can provide income for people who face an extremely competitive employment market even for low paying jobs. Yet a majority of Salvador's musicians support themselves in relative obscurity, sometimes backing name artists on recordings and concert stages, but more commonly working in the hotels, restaurants, bars, and clubs that are patronized by residents and tourists, and that are, as such, central to the city's culture industries.
