America’s Got Talent singing a song she composed herself with a ukulele, “I don’t know my name”. I was impressed; she was only 12 years old. It was: WOW! Then, my sister showed us a few other songs and when she left, I took the job of searching more about her.Last year, before my sister, @imabby17, went to live in Brazil, we were having luch in my house and when the others were finished she said to me and my mom: “Hey, I have something to show you! It’s a singer I love, and I think you’re gonna love it too.” So we asked dad for the computer, turned on the wifi and seached: “Grace Vanderwaal”. She gave us a short introduccion about how she became famous, and showed us a video of her audition to

Some time after that my piano stopped working, and I had no instrument to play when I was bored, which was awful, and suddenly I heard it: “June!” it came from my livingroom “I’m all under dust, but I’m still working” What was it? The words sounded too melodious, so I went to the living room and when the cuatro saw me, it yelled “JUNE! Play me! Play me! There are a few pages where you can find scores to play me, please!” It was desperate, all that time just as a wall decoration. It needed a musician and I needed an instrument, we were made for each other…
I searched in my music gallery to see wich one could be played on the cuatro and when I was about to give up I got to the letter G: Grace Vanderwaal. The first song I learned with the cuatro was Hideaway. And just like that, I familiarized myself with the cuatro, and the song I have for you today, is Vanderwaal’s too, it is called Clay, I hope you like it.

All of this is thanks to my sister. If it weren’t for her I would have never known the name of Grace and I wouldn’t have learned how to play the cuatro… Keep in mind that I am teaching myself how to play it. I know I am not a virtuosa.

Thanks for stopping by!

That’s really nice! I love when things like that happen, especially when something you have been keeping busy and entertained by breaks! Very annoying but I’m glad the other instrument was waiting for you, ready to be dusted off.

The video won’t work for me, it keeps saying video unavailable but YouTube has done that to me with embedded videos. Could you post the normal link to it by any chance? I look forward to listening to it!

Keep it up, the more we do great creative things like this the better we feel and we keep occupied!

Thanks! 😁 ok here you have the link:

I hope you like it!

Finally got it to work and I really liked it! The guitar-thing stole the show and the sound volume but here and there I could hear you singing. Very well done! You are good with the instruments for sure. What other ones do you play besides that and piano?

Thanks! Yes, that's because We make the vídeo with My phone, but we are working in better sound and videos... You Will see 😁
I also play the violín, and it is My favorite instrument.

Very nice! Do you have any videos of the violin? Please share!

There is an American woman that plays an incredible violin! She does it with a different style than many but give the song that’s one of her most popular a listen. I hope you’ve heard of her!

Lindsey Sterling - Crystallize

OMG! She is My favorite violinist! Hahaha. And Crystallize is the first song of her I learned to play.
I promise I Will make a post playing that one soon.

Yay!
