1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: I think that music has saved me time and time again.

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 2: Music saved me two or three times over.

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,319
Speaker 3: If it hadn't been for the guitar, I honestly don't

4
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:11,200
Speaker 3: know what I would have done with my life, and

5
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:11,800
Speaker 3: it saved me.

6
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:16,079

7
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:16,640

Speaker 5: My name is going on as Ellen Judd, and I

9
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 5: started playing guitar when I was eight years old.

10
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,920
Speaker 3: I don't know what would have happened to me if

11
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:24,919
Speaker 3: it hadn't been for music.

12
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 5: I would have either probably been incarcerated or not alive.

13
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 2: My name is Jelly Roll. My mother struggled with a

14
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 2: lot of mental health stuff. She didn't leave her room

15
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 2: very much, but when she would, she would come down

16
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 2: to the kitchen. Then she would play records and the

17
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 2: whole house would just flock to the kitchen, all six seven,

18
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 2: you know. And I think that was the beginning of

19
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,120

21
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: pianist from Detroit, Michigan. I believe that musicians have a

22
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 1: great power, and to use that power in a way

23
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: that is of service to others is exactly why we

24
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: were given the power in the first place.
