Fleet Foxes – White Winter Hymnal (Chords) I think White Winter Hymnal would make for a great ukulele group song. It’s got very easy chords (if you capo at the second fret), some sweet vocal harmonies and a solo for the show-offs. Plus lots of winter imagery that turns a little disturbing. This song was […]

They Might Be Giants Medley (Tab) Over the last 35 years They Might Be Giants have but out some of the funnest and nerdiest music around (and found some time to paint cat ukuleles). So I collected together some of their best known songs along with some of my favourites. Istanbul (Not Constantinople): Starts off […]
Jonathan Lewis – The Princess Royal (Tab) Today’s post comes from Jonathan Lewis who has a new tab ebook out: Morris Tunes for Campanella Ukulele which you can pick up from free on Gumroad. I’m grateful for Al for agreeing to share this arrangement of a popular Morris tune. There are two sections which are […]

Mark Mueller – DuckTales Theme (Tab) Finishing off cartoon week with an exceptionally catchy tune that set the standard for yelling “woo hoo!” (it’s a Duck-Blur indeed). And it’s particularly relevant to give it a ukeing now that the rejiggered series features Uke Hunt favourite Kate Micucci. The song includes a subtle key change with […]
SpongeBob SquarePants – F.U.N. Song (Tab) While writing up Sweet Victory earlier this year, I decided I had to do a tab of this classic SpongeBob ukulele song. I’ve kept the arrangement very simple. There are just three underlying chords: F, Bb and C. And I’m only using my thumb for picking. Although you could […]
Splendora – You’re Standing On My Neck (Chords) With most theme tunes these days being heavy on doom and light on tunes, you can always rely on cartoons for an enjoyable, catchy theme. So this week I’m taking on some of my favourite tunes from animated shows. Starting with the unforgettable riot grrrl tune from […]
