Hey I'm Jay!
I play guitar (strictly acoustic), I sing occasionally but mainly my music consists of finger-picking, such as Andy McKee or Tommy Emmanuel style.
When I do sing it's usually to just whatever song is in my mind at the time!
If we were to eventually get musical competitions I'd be sure to enter, me and my guitar!
Sadly I only recently moved to America and my guitars didn't travel with me just yet so I'm using an old fairly beat up no-name guitar right now that is missing a tuning key and has a note that likes to make a horrid noise. So the entrees I make might seem a little sketchy but I'll do my best ;D
What do you play!?

Hey, nice to meet you!
I'm Alicia. Well, mostly my voice is my instrument, I'm a singer, actress, dancer, but I have been known to play a little piano. I'm not very good but I know my my notes, chords, and scales. I'm working on learning to sight read but that's not coming very easily to me.

I've played the piano since I was six, I can literally play almost anything within a few hours of practice but I can't read a single note!! Dx I feel your pain!!

He's never learned to read a note of sheet music in his life, he just listens and picks out the keys, I'm sooo jealous! He's learning how to read music because our piano teacher insists its important but, he just goes online, hears it once, and can play it, so he never winds up reading, I wish I had your talent!

Hi I'm Red, and I play the clarinet, and I've done a bit of singing when my school had choir. I enjoy playing the clarinet, it has a great sound to it, and it's fairly easy to learn, which I didn't know when I started to learn how to play. I've been playing the clarinet since I was in 5th grade so that would be five years at the moment. I also enjoy marching band too, where you can play and march making shapes out on the field. ^^

I once, in middle school, tried to learn french horn, I was never very good at it, but we did a bit of marching around the school playing our instruments, it wasn't a real marching band or anything. That's awesome though.

That's awesome though. ] Well I never really intended to choose the clarinet I actually wanted to play flute, but then I learned what it was like, and didn't like it so I chose the clarinet, plus my mom had hers so we didn't have to rent one from the school. French horn is actually one of the hardest instruments to play in band, so that's probably why you had troubles. Yeah marching is fun. I went to a competition for it and we got the second best score from what we could get for a rating.

Lmo well my next instrument is going to be the Violin, and I've been told by many that playing the violin without sheet is useless. So I guess it's time for me to start learning what all those scribbles mean!

I am a singer, dancer, and actress as well. I played trumpet for 4th and 5th grade, but didn't enjoy it. I can play a few ditties one-handed on the piano and play the tin whistle a little bit. I would love to play the violin.

I'm a dancer, but I play piano. I don't think I've played in a little over a year because I don't have a piano/keyboard anymore lol. I took lessons for 6 years or so but I was never very good.
