    I have got to ask , how do Sunni’ s siblings feel about all this? I ask because when I picked up my sister’s guitar as a preteen and flawlessly played on the second try a song she had been laboring over for weeks ( I had never picked up the guitar before) she refused to play guitar after that- I unwittingly killed her own musical journey.

    • @OutspokenArtist

      Its interesting because the conversation you see on UA-cam is but a portion of what I got to talk with Sunni and his family. There was a conversation prior and an even longer after we were done recording. His younger sister supports her brother; she herself is a visual artist in the making. Whether through paint or color pencils, that is where she expresses her creativity. Overall, the family is supportive of one another and all share in each other's journey. Hope that helped answer your question Thank you for tuning in and hope to keep sharing great videos for folks like yourself :)

It comes across in not only his playing but the way he speaks and acts. I'm going to share his music via my blog, Marion's Mumblings, in the hope I can spread the word and inspire others. I will start using his music while I'm practicing Tai Chi and Qigong because it will fit perfectly with my sessions.

      A lovely person and highly creative musician who brings smiles to his fans around the world. I hope for future band projects and ensemble play! But also at the age of 11 it's important to find time to relax and not feel pressured into anything. Take it easy with your world tour and don't let anybody stress you, creativity and expression comes to you naturally.

      I really appreciate that. Too many great people out there that should be showcased and I'm happy I can make that happen. The ultimate goal being that my guests have a safe space to express how they feel without judgement. Their voice to be heard.

    Sunni est incroyable, mais nous le savions déjà en le suivant sur ses réseaux. Mais assurer comme il le fait lors d'une interview plutôt longue (et c'est tant mieux), alors là, chapeau bas Sunni. Tu es un grand, mais je te l'ai déjà dit à maintes reprises. Bravo pour cette interview.

    The subtitles on the video segments are for another video. (I was so mesmerized by Sunni it took me to 35mins to notice). You may want to fix that. Otherwise, it's great!
