I was a subway musician (did club work also) for about 25 years up until the turn of the century (always wanted to say that). I then stumbled upon the computer and now I work updating web pages for a university but my true love will always be music. I haven't played in public since 2000 until I came upon YouTube.
I am a singer first and foremost, I play guitar to accompany myself. I don't read tabs or music and I usually transpose songs into a lower key because of my baritone. Every once in a while I will try to sing in sotto voce (hushed under voice) and falsetto which is always a challenge. I find the chords for most of the songs I sing online.
I use 2 guitars, an early 90's Yamaha LE-10 and a 67 Gibson J45.
