I've been playing for only about 3 or 4 years. Everything I know is self-taught so there is a lot I still need and want to learn. I don't think there is a "how" to becoming a musician. I was born with music inside of me and the only thing that calms my soul is my ability to sing and share what's inside with those around me.

Biggest - National Anthem for probably 400+
Smallest - Small open mic nights or small venues of anywhere from 5-20 people

Oh goodness...this is torture. Honestly, I would have all my music with me, I'd just have to be the one to sing it to myself! hah..One album...just one...I'd have to say Mindy Smith's "One Moment More." I fell in love with her music in high school and have it on repeat over and over - time and time again. Yeah...that's the one. Do yourself a favor and check it out <3
