Playing an Instrument as a Singer-Songwriter
You don’t have to depend on someone else when you can accompany yourself
Accompanying yourself gives you freedom to tour the world as a solo act
You need to get comfortable playing your instrument
Practicing even 15 minutes a day makes a difference

Words of Wisdom from Ali
Look for opportunities that are great for your career, even if they don’t make you money
