I play a little piano,guitar and harmonica
For me I have been singing in bands since I was 19 and pretty much my last band was in my 50's,but never learnt an instrument till i was 52.
I guess I was lucky in that my body was my instrument,but truth is I never thought I was smart enough to learn an instument.
I started playing harmonica,with the last band,which really was more of a clollective,with different members changing instuments,and 4 or 5 different singers,I just started playing in the background,although I cant play blues harp at all.....
Then I got a piano and went through lots of teachers,mainly trying to avoid learning properly and being arrogant.
then I got sick and could no longer sit at the piano,I got a guitar dec 26 2017,im now having lessons from a pretty renowkned rock guitarist,with a classical background,he trained at Berkley,which is unusual fo OZ
For me acoustic music,more James Taylor,but thats pretty high reaching
Thats hard,musically ive played lots,but instrumentaly,beginner-intermediate.
I would say both,I play guitar everyday but I got asked to perform last week,"sing"
Have I ever made money,well no
money has never been my motivation,i just love music
I love playing with others,as you really learn a lot and I just love talking about music and its so much fun,I actually never could do Kareoke,I just felt so lonely on stage by myself
I find that since learning an instrument I hear music differently.
