On early 2019 I got an upright piano and have been learning to play keyboard ever since. Music has become an important part of my life and I love sharing the joy of music with my friends and family. And at summer break of that same year me and my friends went camping and some of them brought their acoustic guitars. Singing along my pals around the BONFIRE became one of my fondest memories.
It was such a shame that I cant bring my piano with me to perform with everyone else that day. If only I had a small instrument that I can always take with me just in case my friends break into a song!
So I decided to buy a melodica! Oh, and also to make a drum machine for my phone. That was cool too.
Get in contact with me if you're interested in getting you (or your band) custom made instruments!
