Eddie Vedder – Tuolumne (Tab) Nype suggested I do a uke version of Eddie Vedder’s Tuolumne from the soundtrack of Into the Wild (and the precursor to Just Breathe). I was a bit trepedacious as a lot of guitar picking songs end up finger-crunchingly tricky on ukulele. But it actually works out very well. I […]

Daft Punk – Get Lucky I was humming and hawing over whether to write Get Lucky up until I heard Will Grove-White’s awesome ukulele version. Both versions are in the same key so you can use these chords to play along with either. Suggested Strumming Nile Rodgers’s funky rhythm part really makes the song. There’s […]
