I speak about my guitar playing like it’s something other than me, because in many ways, it is. Same with the singing. I stand on stage with these two children who have to play nice together, and when they don’t, I have to spend most the time on stage making sure they don’t beat each other up. Do I concentrate on singing and let the guitar playing happen on its own, or the other way around? “Yes” is the answer.
