Class Experience

Every year on February 2nd, World Play Your Ukulele Day encourages ukulele players all across the world to get together and play!

People around the world celebrate the day under the slogan, "bring the world together, four strings at a time." 

In this one-time class, we will gather with others around the world to play popular ukulele songs together! Music will be shared before the celebration to give everyone a chance to practice, but don't worry - the songs aren't difficult. You might have already played a few of them already! 

This is an event for ALL SKILL LEVELS, from beginner to advanced. The songs we will be playing are:

Somewhere Over the Rainbow (Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwoʻole) 
Someone to Lava (Disney)
Riptide (Vance Joy)
Hey There Delilah (Plain White T's)
Can't Help Falling In Love (Elvis Presley/21 Pilots)
