Ukulear Family returns

The fun four-week family class known as the Ukulear Family returns to McCabes in the month of March.

I loves me the kiddles! A backstage lesson…

4 consecutive Saturdays- March 8, 15, 22 and 29 at 10:30.  All ages are welcome- even adults without kids!  $110, Kids under 8 are $50 (with participating adult!)

It’s been an exciting year already- sometimes I just don’t have the time to post great photos of the fun times, so here’s a few.

Swag City!!! Kala Travel Tenor

A big fat box of swag came from the Weekend Ukulele Warrior sponsor KALA, including this sleek and bright Kala Travel Tenor.  Next week, being the last Saturday of the month we will draw the lucky winner from January’s workshop participants.  Your odds are pretty darn good, as we will only have had 3 weeks total of workshops- so come next week and join the fun!

We also have tuners and shirts to raffle off, plus stickers and Kala Swag for ALL!

Next week’s workshop is Daniel Ward’s specialty- LATIN STRUMS.  Rhumba, baby! Sexy stuff!

Meanwhile, I will be playing with Elizabeth Mitchell and You are My Flower at the SOLD OUT

Kid’s Music Grammy Nominees Concert
