So much good stuff this week. I had to cut out some stuff I really like. Including the new Amanda Palmer video. Those that did make it include some summery, laid-back tunes from Leftover Cuties, Lemoskine and Nicholas Abersold along with Pops Bayless, Mr B the Gentleman Rhymer and plenty more.

A track this week from Watercolor Paintings’s new album These Arms (which you can buy on Bandcamp) along with a cavalcade of stars including Dave Matthews, Zooey Deschanel, Ben Schwartz, (Carolina Chocolate Drop) Dom Flemons and Robert Crumb.
Sophie Madeleine is spending the month leading up to the full release of her album doing a cover a day. You can watch them all here. Or watch my two favourties so far in this post along with Connie Francis, The Winin’ Boys, Tyrone and plenty more.
I’ve spent the entire course of this week squinting through a haze of tears thanks to the new Bon Iver album. So I was either going to love or hate the first ukulele cover of it I heard. As luck would have it, Kina Grannis was up to the job. Also this week is Lisa […]
Still no decent Internet here, so a rather shortened post this week. So go ahead and leave your favourite of the week in the comments to give people something to listen to.
It’s nearly the half way point of the year. Already. So here’s a quick round-up of my favourite videos so far (in the order they showed up on the blog). One thing I’ve noticed putting this together: the number of pro musicians using the ukulele has crowded out the bedroom players. Whether that’s established musicians […]
If I ever launch a range of ukuleles, I’m going to get Kimo Hussey to demonstrate them. That guy has incredible touch. As well as Kimo showing off his DeVine, this week has videos from The Vespers, The Jive Aces, Peter Brooke Turner of the UOGB under his Tony Penultimate pseudonym and plenty more besides.
Right bunch of bloody weirdos this week.
Videos this week include the new one from Eddie Vedder, podcast star Helen Arney (you can download this song and a couple of others on Bandcamp for free if you make it before it runs out), Lemos and a houseful of buddies, auto-erotica from Garfunkel and Oates and plenty more besides.
It’s a shame I never got to see the Asylum Street Spankers live before they split up. They were one hell of a band. Two video this week from their trio of final shows; one with Pops Bayless on uke duties and the other with Christina Marrs. Quick warning: I’m going to try to move […]
