My hands knew where to go before my brain caught up. That's Chris — pattern over panic.

He had me playing my first song in twenty minutes. I'd spent six months on YouTube getting nowhere.

In their own words.
I came to learn Hey Jude for my daughter's wedding. Left playing three more. Wedding was a hit.

I was 52 and had never touched an instrument in my life. Chris didn't laugh. He just handed me a guitar and said, "right, let's find out what you like."
A year later I played my first open mic. Two songs, one of which I wrote. My hands shook but I didn't forget a single chord. I've never had something outside work feel this meaningful. I'll be playing until I can't hold a pick.
