Sign ups for Sage Harrington's Swing Strumming: the Essential Ukulele Skills course close soon, but you can join via this link:
https://www.ukuleleswingschool.com/swingin-saturdays-workshop-series/
That same link also goes to videos from the recent taster sessions Sage ran, so you can get an idea of what it's all about. I was in Sage's swing course last year and thoroughly enjoyed it. A great programme if you want to explore playing swing and put a little pep in your playing.
Got A Ukulele returns this week, so it's time for your Macro Monday! #gotaukulele #ukulele #macro #comingnext #sneakpeek
Christopher Davis-Shannon: "Lady Be Good" with @choan
A while ago this lovely little whale pouch made by @evansky_arts moved in.
It now holds several picks, a set of strings and a small tuning fork in its belly and I can clip it onto my #ukulele bags.
(The set of strings is a rather cheap one. The more expensive ones don't fit due to different packaging. So, if you're thinking about getting a pouch, please do, as they're really well made and nice, but be aware that they're not handbags size-wise.)
Alright, I'm done the basic transcribing and transposing phase of another #ukulele cover of a song I love.
Now on to the "get through the song without crying" phase. It's a *good* song.
(I'm going to count that as today's #100daysUke2025 !)
Achievement unlocked: adjusted the action on my wife's #ukulele to make it considerably easier to play.
It's #WorldBookDay (aka Sant jordi). All* our #ukulele books—print and digital–have a 10% discount until the end of the month.

Well, that was fun
Ran through a swinging version of "After You've Gone" with a few embellishments and strumming options, a sort of taster of the full swing ukulele course that Sage will be running soon.
A brief reminder that Sage is running a free online ukulele swing music workshop in about an hour, with a second one next weekend:

This lady only has a few hundred followers and gets not many likes on YouTube. I find her #ukulele playing and singing deserve more likes, I'm a bit sad she hasn't got more. She has loads of videos uploaded of cool songs.
Big hit for The Cascades in the sixties, covered by Neil Sedaka, Dan Fogelberg, and others.
