Hello Steemians, just almost a week ago we joined the Steemit Community and we are thankful for those who are following us and supporting us. We want to give you a little piece of our background.
We started at very young ages, when all the other kids were learning to read and write, we were reading music and reading it well. Solomon ( the pianist ) started playing piano when he was 4 years old, first being taught by his mother. The piano he played was second hand, from a church. Jonathan ( the guitarist) started the same time as Solomon, but at age 6. He was taught by a music teacher and his first guitar was a small acoustic that his father had picked up from the dump. Now.. it was a good guitar and just needed strings. Finally Leonardo ( the drummer ) started at age 5, with an electric drum as you see.
We would really like for you to follow us @simonsbrothers throughout our musical journey around our island and the world. :)

Eventually we got "new" second hand instruments. From there, six years later, we are now big perfomers in Bermuda and are well known. We have gotten brand new instruments and use the latest technology that's out there. But we have deserved it, we were not given brand new instruments at first, but after our parent's consistent encouragement and persistence, and hundreds upon hundreds of music lessons throughout these years, and the thousands of dollars that have been invested into us throughout our lives, we have grown into the people and band we are today. Playing on big stages and in front of large audiences.

Wow, it's always amazing to see kids getting into music at such a young age. It really takes me back to when I first joined our school's concert band. Definitely won yourself a follower.

Thanks
