I love music and I love solving the puzzles that it presents to me.
My grandfather bought me a keyboard when I was 7 years old and I started teaching myself how to play the keys shortly after. I have taken formal piano classes for a few years but most of the songs I play I learned on YouTube (which is how I teach myself many things Iām interested in).
I joined School of Rock in 2019 where I am a keyboardist and we get to play live shows (before COVID of course!). I enjoy playing with my family too – my little brother plays drums and my dad plays guitar/bass.
Here are some of my recent performances:
Band Name: School of Rock, “Soul Party”
Date: January 2020
Song: Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In) by Kenny Rogers
Band: “Family Band” š (My dad, my middle brother Leo, and me)
Song: “Tongue Tied” by Grouplove (background track used for vocals)
Date: November 2020
Band: Solo Piano Performance
Song: 55-song medley (Theme music, classics, and popular music)
Note: This is the piece that I’m most proud of at the moment. Typically, 5.5 minutes, but the video got cut off at the 4 minute mark!
