Details:
The love of music is life to me. My dad was a song leader at church, so all of us children would sing with dad all the time growing up.
I was five years old the first time dad let me lead singing at church. Mom and granddaddy said I held the songbook upside down, like I needed a songbook to read.
My mom’s dad and her brothers played the guitar and sang country music. They put a guitar in my hands and taught me how to play with them. I was hooked on country music and have been ever since.
There were five children in my family. Mom helped us start a little family band called The Amazing Mayes. She made us matching vests to wear when we performed at the campgrounds. Richard played the bass, Kay played the drums, Elizabeth (Bee for short) played the Autoharp, and baby brother Andy played the morocco’s. And me, well, I played the guitar and would sing with all my brothers and sisters. I sometimes made up little songs for us to sing.
We all grew up and went down life’s road. But the love of music went with us. At the family reunions everyone pulls out their guitars and plays and sings all afternoon. (I guess you could say there is music in our family tree.)
So here I am after raising my own family, loving to write, play, and sing. Hoping I can touch someone through the love of music and song and let them know they’re not alone.
