I started piano lessons in 3rd grade. Guitar lessons in 6th. I still play both.

I was first trumpet all through middle and high school--I LOVE the fat sound of a big trumpet played full out. The first time I heard myself make that sound was a beautiful, beautiful day. My senior year, I moved aside to let somebody new take my seat, and I played Brass Baritone, which is a fun horn. Almost a tuba. Very oompa-oompa-y.

I fronted a garage band in high school, singing and playing guitar. We did about half covers and half originals. In the process of fooling around with my guys I played drums, bass, keys...

These days I mostly play guitar and piano. I haven't touched a horn in a lot of years.
