1. How old were you when you first started singing?

I was 8 years old, and church was my first experience singing and then I picked it up again when I was in my twenties. Singing didn't become serious until my 30's, as I was becoming a songwriter. While I was in High School, I played the drums for the school band, which was my first instrument and in my later life I picked up the keyboard just enough to come up with the melodies for my songwriting.
