I've been singing since I was 8 years old and working in clubs since I was 14. I've been working full time since I was 16.

Randy Travis

I have been gigging around Glasgow and Edinburgh since I was 12. I played in pubs at that age, even though I obviously was too young to be in them. So I used to hide in bathrooms, come out and play my set, then get the hell out as quickly as possible.

Lewis Capaldi

I've been through the entire gamut of the music industry - I've been playing in clubs since I was 14, and I've been on Warner Bros, on Sony - I've had lots of successes and some serious times of struggle.

Vonda Shepard

I'm a trained fine artist. I went to art school from the time I was 5 years old. I was, like, a prodigy out of Chicago. I'd been in national competitions from the age of 14.

Kanye West

We then took a shortened version of what we'd been doing in the pubs, with the best gags and things like that, out to cabaret clubs and things in the north of England for six weeks. And we became a big success.

I was 12 years fittin to be a billionaire; I was 15 years old as a millionaire. Ive been rich since I was 14. My son has been a millionaire since he was 12, so thats just the life. Weve been playing with money since young.

Birdman

Ever since I've been old enough to shave I've been playing clubs.

Frank Sinatra Jr.

Competitions are great. Unlike a lot of other creative industries they are a great way of climbing the ladder early on. If you win a comp you get on the big clubs' radar. Some people are not great at competitions, so it doesn't work out for everybody, but it is certainly a good way of getting seen by industry people.

Joe Lycett

Ever since I was quite young, I was in St. John's Ambulance or the Red Cross; latterly, I've been involved in voluntary work with the mentally handicapped and Abbeyfield Old People's Homes.

Nicholas Winton

I've been doing jiu-jitsu since I was 14 years old. It actually was the martial art that was really stapled in my mind that said, this is what I want to do... I want to do martial arts for the rest of my life.

Rory MacDonald

Coming from a dance background, I was in competitions every single weekend, so I've been put on the spot since I was eight years old. When I first got into singing and went on tour, it kind of just felt like home, because I'd been there so many times.
