Where is AB Quintanilla now?

The Netflix series Selena reveals that Selena Quintanilla's brother, AB Quintanilla was a member of Selena’s band, Selena y Los Dinos. The musician had written several of his sister’s hit songs, including Como La Flor and No Me Queda Mas. With Selena being the lead vocalist of the band, her brother went on to play the bass guitar and to write songs, and Suzette became the drummer.
