Hey hey hey!
So most of you all probably know by now, but I am
hugely, crazily, fanatically in love with music. Besides Jesus, of course, it is my heart; my passion; my everything. I have a really long story about my music background and how I got to this place in my life of loving it as much as I do, but that's another post for another time ;) Anyways, so in honor of
National Music Day today, I decided to make a
tag for all you music lovers out there! And I stopped at six questions because it's a really odd number to stop at. I was gonna go to ten but I was like, "no, this is my life." ENJOY :''') OOO! Also, feel free to use the image below or use your own!

5. Top three favorite bands/singers?
6. What are your three favorite chords? (I guess this can really truly only be applied to people who play an instrument...whoops)
MY ANSWERS:
01. DO YOU PLAY ANY INSTRUMENTS?
Yes!! I play four instruments. I've played piano for as long as I can remember, and over the past year I've taught myself guitar, ukulele, and banjo. Still teaching myself banjo, but the other three I can actually play fairly well. I'm not a pro (not even close) at any of these though, haha. I did play violin when I was seven but I never picked it back up... I should now, though!!
02. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE MUSIC GENRE?
Definitely folk rock. I also love alternative rock, but there's something about rock mixed with banjo and harmonica that is just stellar. And since I really only listen to Christian, NEEDTOBREATHE does this perfectly for me. And because NTB is all around amazing. ;) #fangirl
03. IS THERE A MUSIC GENRE YOU ABSOLUTELY CANNOT STAND?!
Country. I cannot listen to it. Also bluegrass. And I can stand very few rap songs. It's not that I just hate it... I'm just not gangster enough (I've tried, trust me). *girl with hand up emoji*
04. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE WAY TO LISTEN TO MUSIC?
(CD, MP3, VINYL, RADIO, ETC.)
It's probably a tie between mp3 and vinyl. I live for listening to music in the car, but at night when I'm chillin' like introverts do, I love my vinyls.
05. TOP THREE FAVORITE BANDS/SINGERS?
NEEDTOBREATHE (for sure), Switchfoot/Jon Foreman (definitely) and hmmm... This is hard... I mean, I will always and forever have a love for For King and Country but I don't know if I would put it at my top three right now. Maybe The Dust of Men.. I dunno. I'm more of a person who has a band that I like but I pick out the songs, ya feel? So there's not many bands I like as an entire whole. I have a lot of folk bands I listen to but not really the bands... Just certain songs. :'''')
06. WHAT ARE YOUR THREE FAVORITE CHORDS?
F#m, C#m, and G!
QUESTION FOR MY NOMINEES:
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SONG BECAUSE OF WHAT IT MEANS TO YOU?
"Wasteland" by NEEDTOBREATHE. The lyrics mean a lot to me. My favorite verse is Isaiah 43:19 and this song is basically based off that.
I TAG:
Enjoy the tag, my little pineapples.
