Rock was coming in so heavily that it was like an explosion with the English Invasion, acid rock, Southern rock, and Motown all at once. My brother Mickey was a national TV star on the Lawrence Welk show when he was thirteen. We used to make fun of his music, but we still had fun with it. My dad was a big band leader, and he infused us with music.
Patti: I grew up in a very, very musical family. I got very much into his type of music through that. LZZY: My dad was a bass player, so my earliest memories are of watching his gigs. What is your earliest memory of music, the first thing you remember being influenced by? What follows is an in-depth look at their perspectives on playing and how the music industry has changed-or not-in the past sixty-odd years. We thought it would be fun, interesting, and educational to get these two together to compare, contrast, and talk shop. LZZY grew up in rural Pennsylvania and makes her home in Nashville, while Patti hails from Detroit and now lives in Austin, TX. LZZY and Patti have both played in bands with their siblings-LZZY with her younger brother Arejay and Patti with brother Mickey and sisters Suzi (the iconic bassist), Nancy, and Arlene. Each is a virtuoso guitarist in her own right.
