I mainly play and sing solo and go to folk and acoustic clubs and I'm confident playing in front of an audience
I pair up with someone else and have done some paid gigs
My main instruments at the moment are ukuleles - tenor, baritone and bass. I also have an upright bass banjo and can strum along the guitar, play a bit on the mountain dulcimer and bouzouki and a wee bit of mandolin.
I can play the ukes to a good level, the bass I am ok with, bouzouki has taken a back seat for a while, and the mandolin at an advanced beginner stage
I need time to practice getting stuff together - not able to fully play by ear -but once Ive got the stuff together I'm ok
