How do you get where you are? One essential tip: avoid dying too early!
I started learning the guitar, i.e. the basics of blues, as well as songwriting rather late. I only started learning the guitar more properly during the Covid-19 times... Fortunately, I'm good with words, so I make a little money with lyrics writing. Not much, mind you, but it pays for my hobby.
I actually don't think that my musical ideas are influenced by any particular artist or band. Or in other words: there are too many. Why, you might envision AC/DC here and there, namely were I play two guitar tracks that I pan to the right and left to gain a 'fat' sound. Sometimes the guitar sound may remind you a little of Robin Trower. A few songs were compared to the Rolling Stones. But then, I also create and play folk music, or songs I couldn't assign to a particular genre.
My computer, a cheap version of the Cubase software, a cheap USB interface, three cheap microphones, a cheap 12-string guitar, two cheap E-guitars, a cheap bass guitar, two cheap effect pedals, headphones, and my voice.
Anythings goes? That would be AC/DC, wouldn't it?
