I'm a 26 year old Guitarist, I started playing when i was 10 but it wasn't until i was a little older that i started taking it seriously, I'm currently taking lessons to fill in gaps in my knowledge and working through grades as i never did them when i was younger, i took my Grade 5 as a jumping off point and passed with a distinction, i'm currently working towards grade 8, I would love to be a professional Musician, It doesn't have to be bright lights and glitz and glamour but enough to live on.
