The sound of Van Clybourn&#8217;s piano on Mr. Roger&#8217;s Neighborhood made me love that instrument, and subsequently piano lessons. Was exposed to some interesting classical and jazz by my parents as well. If I had any place in high school, it was the music department. Music major in college. Lots of stuff contributing to whatever it is I&#8217;m able to do now musically. Nothing happens, musically or otherwise, in a vacuum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have been writing and recording my own material since the mid 1980s.
