My association with music, and the music industry, is life-long and ongoing. My parents were both musical, and my dad has performed professionally for his entire life. With that kind of exposure, I guess it was natural for me to absorb a bit, and move in that direction myself. As Shawn Colvin sings ... "If there were no music, then I would not get through."
