Artists of the Ukulele – Live!

Links & more performances coming real soon!
When ukulele first hit the scene about a hundred years ago it was a cool, hip thing to have. A San Fransisco music store advertisement from 1915 read:

The Hawaiian Ukulele is the one musical instrument that everyone can play. It’s inexpensive. It is easily carried about. It’s melodious – it has a charm all it’s own. It’s a welcome addition to any social gathering- in the home, on an outing trip or in the summer camp.It affords great pleasure to young and old.

A hundred years later that is just as true. And just like it’s popularity “spread like wildfire” a century ago, so today, many are discovering the joy of uke.
It’s played in almost any genre of music, and it’s musical texture knows no bounds. These amazing musicians are showing the potential in this instrument. Enjoy!

The amazement, as someone once said, is not how it’s done, but that it’s done at all.
