Did you
know?
-
the ukulele has only 4 strings
-
you don't need to be able to read music to play (many of the Ukulymies don't read music so you're in good company)
-
when you've learned just 2 chords you can play dozens of tunes; 3 chords and you're rocking out to HUNDREDS of 'em!
-
the ukulele is fun for all ages - we know of players as young as 5 and some in their ninth decade
-
you can buy a brand new ukulele for as little as £30 (just don't blame us when you get hooked and buy your second, third... )
-
you're welcome to come along and sit in on one of our practice sessions to see if the uke is for you
-
and the best fact of all... you can't play the ukulele without smiling!
