[edit] Background
Michael Chagnon is an American musician that began playing violin at the age of seven shortly after moving to Lynchburg, Virginia from Sturbridge, Massachusetts. He continued formal violin lessons for the next five years. Throughout this period his elementary school provided introductory guitar, piano, and musical notation lessons. Every student was required to play a recorder proficiently before graduating. He was also involved with the show choir.
Chagnon dropped violin and began playing baritone with the concert band at his middle school. He stopped playing baritone when he transferred to a new school. After being musically dormant for a year, Chagnon got his first guitar and began teaching himself to play. During his sophomore year in high school he began forming what was to become Escape Velocity.
