<p>Rosie Bans! Rosie Bans is a singer songwriter from Glasgow, Scotland who gravitated to playing piano at a young age. Rosie plays a number of instruments and even includes the lowly <strong>recorder</strong> in that list. In her 20's, this self-taught pianist found herself in London for five years, she describes this as a dramatic time in her life and incredibly educational, <strong>playing 4 and 5 Star hotels and restaurants, and even the House of Lords.</strong> She recounts that on one occasion she was let go from one of her regular gigs and replaced by a modern player-piano. That's right, just plug in the memory card and the piano starts to play, keys and all. She laughs about it now, not so much then.</p> <p>Her main project these days is called, <strong>Be Radical, Make Music</strong>, it is also a Facebook group anyone can join! In addition to the group, she hosts <strong>Be Radical, Make Music</strong> seminars for more in-depth learning.</p> <p>Rosie has some amazing stories of self-discovery and travel that any musician is sure to identify with.
