I play the piano, but I'm not classically trained.
I started classical piano when I was eight, but I wasn't a virtuoso. I just really liked it.
I bad a piano long before I bad a guitar, and the practice I got just playing those three chords in a basic 12-bar blues song was very important.
I always liked major-key music quite a bit, and that might have something to do with so many of the musical experiences of my childhood being based around the piano.
My first instrument was the piano; I played in the church, and before that I sang in church. I didn't learn the guitar until I was 24 years old.
A couple of my friends had guitars, and I remember messing with them, but I was often intimidated by it. I think I sat down at a piano once when I was really young, but that was it.
When I was a kid, I played the piano for six years, and all my family are musicians.
I've been playing piano since I was 7. I took 15 years of lessons. I've got a lot of miles on these hands.
In high school, I was always into Jerry Lee Lewis, and they decided they needed a piano player for the jazz band. I had my little boogie-woogie thing that I did, so I did my little boogie-woogie thing. I had a very high-pitched voice.
