Aidy’s first musical instrument was a tambourine when she was five years old. She quickly learned how to manipulate a hammer-jointed hand crank that would raise or lower the pitch of the tambourine. Sometime around that time Comus Hall, the school where Aidy attended, became the subject of a whispered rumor that Aidy’s parents were secretly related to each other by birth.
