I mostly play fiddle.
I can play tinwhistle (D) well enough to play along with others.
I used to play dulcimer, and can, somewhat.
I'm trying to learn hammered dulcimer. I fool around on banjo, mandolin, bones, and spoons. I like to sing more than I like to play.
I've always had a wimpy voice, and I've been extremely frustrated. Two weeks ago I asked a friend who sings very well and very loudly, for help. She pointed at someone else. I talked to him for about an hour, and he helped me immensely. Last night in a session, the subject of songs with dates in the first line came up, and I sang the first line of "Diesel and Shale." People looked at me like "yeah, and the rest is...?" I kept going and finished the song. I surprised people - one friend turned around and gave me a "what the hell" look. (He said later he couldn't believe that voice was coming out of me.) People sang along with the chorus. (On the 2 or 3 other occasions I attempted to sing, they didn't.) They applauded for what seemed like a long time when I finished. (They're regulars - I think they were acknowledging my accomplishment of actually being heard.) Please forgive me if this little "happy dance" is out of place, but after years of being virtually mute, finding my voice feels like a miracle. Yeah - I like to sing.
