Clare McDonnell
Who? Presenter of 5 live Breakfast
My version of "Bring me Sunshine"was something to behold. I need to get my musical mojo back.
Instrument? Piano
Why Get Playing? "I learned piano as a child and loved it. I was taught initially by the barman in our local pub who played keyboards in the pub band. This meant I got to play recognisable tunes pretty quickly as I worked my way through "101 pub classics". Yes, such a tome existed back in the seventies. My version of "Bring me Sunshine"was something to behold. I need to get my musical mojo back."
