[Am] How's it going guys?
Pretty good.
[A] I started playing bass at about four.
And when I was four I started singing.
And I've been playing guitar since I was five.
And I've been playing banjo since I was nine.
I started, I was like three on the violin.
And then [G] I picked up mandolin later when I was [A] about nine.
Would you recommend picking up an instrument and taking music lessons?
Yeah, absolutely.
It's a blast.
It takes a lot of hard work and practice, but [G] it's definitely worth it because it's a lot of fun.
