Melodic Balance: The Effective Use of Music Therapy
About Jehlad Hickson
My journey into music started when I was very young. At the age of 2 my mother bought me a set of bongos and congas. My mother knew right away that I had this constant rhythm flowing in me when I used to hit my hands on my grandfather’s couch, always creating a nice drum beat, yet annoying a lot of people in my house. I grew up in New Hampshire early in my childhood, and although music was always playing in the house, none of my family members were truly musically inclined, and truthfully whenever I would try to sing, I was always silenced. One of the first songs that I remember hearing a lot was Montell Jordan’s 1995 hit “This Is How We Do It.”
