Thanks so much for sharing your new acquisition with such detail and information! Made me want to strum on a ukelele ! I will click on all the songs you have shared. A lovely beginning to a busy week.

What a great and fun issue! One can tell how much research and time you invested on putting this together. I bought a keyboard and was doing well (trying to learn how to play it) during the pandemic, but it’s been almost one year since I touched for the last time... Now I wonder if I should shift to an ukulele! 😬

So glad you liked it! Hahah that's crazy - we did the same thing in the hardest pandemic year 2020. There was excitement and all, but there was so much to learn, and it took up so much space in our small flat, that the keyboard finally landed in the closet :< I think it will be different with uke - it's really small, light, not too complicated, with a huge base of tutorials to learn from and almost every string puck sounds pleasant

I had to save this for when I had some time Stygi. What awesome listens. I live in Auckland, New Zealand, home to the largest Polynesian population in the world, perhaps second to Hawaii for ukeleles per capita. I loved Taiane's Beethoven to wait, was that Led Zep? She plays that like a Charango and the track reminds me of a piece I created which is a medley of Heito Villa Lobos morphing into a Charlie Byrd-ish version of Killing Me Softly (famous from Roberta Flack and Fugees, but written by Norman Gimbel. I thought Jason Hill was pretty cool with the looping pedal. Look forward to hearing you guys play your uke, or is it ukes now? Anyway thoroughly enjoyed your extensive playlist and stories, for which my thanks.
