Don’t forget to get your nominations in for ukulele video of the year 2009. Back to this year, two fantastic videos include loops, beats and electric ukes from Kilgore Trout is Dead and Little6ster (which I think is the first contender for video of the year 2010). Also this week is the swearier of Sebi’s […]

Time to look back on the ukulele videos of last year. And it was a bumper crop. If you need any proof check out the list of some of the contenders below. And – to be honest – that’s the real purpose of the vote: to get people watching excellent musicians. So if there’s a […]

Part two of the UkeTube features a beautiful song from Matt Kresling, shouty Scots GUGUG, fleat-fingerwork from Martin Wheatley and Ian Emmerson and plenty more.

A two parter needed for all the videos that have cropped up during my break. The first includes Emily Ritz’s newly christened band Honeycomb, Jake Wildwood, part of the UOGB’s Proms performance and Supercute! the new band of Rachel Trachtenburg (of the Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players) covering the Mighty Zeppelin.

The second part of the ukulele Christmas round up (part one is here) includes The Mad Tea Party (NSFW), Uni (again), Tricity Vogue (again), WS64 and more. If your ukulele xmas needs are not sated then check out Armelle’s Christmas ukulele world tour.

Too many Christmas ukulele videos to fit into one post, so there’s a second post coming up a little later. This first part includes songs from Tripping Lily, MJ Hibbett, Tricity Vogue, U900, Gensblue and plenty more. Originally, it included Michael McDonald’s rather wonderful performance on Conan O’Brien but the video was removed. If you’re […]

There are two posts packed with Christmas ukulele coming up but there were a few non-Xmas tunes I couldn’t let pass without a mention including Michelle Blades (who is the bee’s business and getting better with every new song) and Sophie Madeleine wearing an excellent t-shirt.

Doctor Who? is one of those things everyone loves and I don’t see the appeal of at all. The theme tune, on the other hand, I do love. And this week’s UkeTube is bookended by two takes on it – one from Ukelilli and one from WS64. Also this week Craig Robertson, Agathe, Arborea and […]

At Christmas we should spare a thought for people less fortunate than ourselves – I write about the ukulele for a living so everyone is less fortunate than me – and there are two excellent ways to do it. Helen Arney is recording a ukulele video every day this month and all she’s asking is […]

Videos this week from the mind-bending tUnE-YaRdS (and don’t miss FIYA from the same session), Miss Jess, Siri Nilsen (same song as last time but it’s too good), Nate Lieby (I strongly advise you close your eyes for 15 seconds at the 2:25 mark) and plenty more. A lot of stuff I wanted to post […]
