There, he formed a band called "Os Camarões" (The Shrimps) with some friends, and managed to win a local music festival.
When he met Paulo Miklos and Arnaldo Antunes, who took part of the festival, he made the first compositions with what would later become Titãs.
When the high school was over, he made three attempts on the Mathematics yearly vestibular at University of São Paulo, but ended up studying at Federal University of São Carlos.

By then, he was also a percussionist and crooner in Sossega Leão, a salsa band.
In the late 1980s, Titãs caught a plane to London, for their first international show.
In 1982, Titãs (at that time "Titãs do Iê-Iê") made their first live presentation at Mário de Andrade Library with Reis as a drummer, an instrument he soon abandoned.
They recorded several tapes and sent them to recording labels until they signed up with Warner Music label.
In 1984, Titãs released their first album, Titãs, and Nando played the bass guitar in some tracks although initially he was supposed to be a backing vocalist only.

On June 19, 1989, his mother Cecília died of cancer.
In the early 1990s, he started producing his first albums, with artists like Marisa Monte and Cássia Eller.

His first compositions were all based on poems.
