I don’t really know that I consider Maynard to be a musician though. Singer? Yeah. Songwriter? Yeah. Is he a musician though? Sure he’s been known to hop on a second guitar on stage, but I’ve never really been certain anything was even coming from it. Last edited by Third Eye; 05-10-2019 at 11:30 PM.. |

IMO: Maynard has made a living on writing, performing, producing and mixing music. He is considered to be one of the best of all time at his instrument (voice+effects/tone). How is he not a musician? I mean, you could say he's not a drummer... or not a guitarist... but I think he fits the criteria of Musician. |

It’s in no way meant to be disparaging, as I know you’re a singer as well. I’m not implying that the voice is somehow less than an instrument. Hell, in many ways it’s the opposite. I’ve just always considered a musician to be someone who PLAYS music.

I know that when he lends his voice to other people's work it always elevates the song. He's irreplaceable as a vocalist.

I play a bit of piano, guitar, bass, drums, didgeridoo, whatever... but I don't practice enough on ANY of them to be a full timer in a working band. I do however put that amount of effort into vocals, composing, and Mixing. I would consider myself a musician, but I suppose for those that only know me as they see me on stage, I'd just be a singer. (but that's a little odd to me) |
