Earlyguard

Earlyguard is a big favourite here at Uke Hunt. I’ve already tabbed his tunes Busy Bee and Blue Smoke. Yesterday he released an album of his ambient and atmospheric tunes Time To Relax which you can download it for free at his MySpace. Earlyguard’s music is far removed from the ‘rata-tat-tat’ delivery of most ukulele […]

Neighbours Theme

Neighbours theme (tab) I couldn’t resist arranging this tune for the ukulele. Having suffered through a few debilitating bouts of Neighbours addiction, I knew the tune embarrassingly well.

Flight of the Conchords – Mermaids

Flight of the Conchords – Mermaids (Chords) I woke up this morning to an excited email from Uke Hunt’s official FotC correspondent Jenny Flame telling me that last Sunday’s episode featured a ukulele song. I immediately dashed over to YouTube, stole the lyrics and started working out the chords. After Jemaine’s appearance with a ukulele […]

Baby Elephant Walk – Solo

Baby Elephant Walk Solo Version (Tab) A couple of weeks ago I tabbed out a version of this song for two ukuleles and I couldn’t resist the challenge of doing it on one. I combined the two parts in the simplest way I could think of: by only playing the background riff when there were […]
