Bust Magazine’s Ukulele Ladies
July 28, 2007
Moonlitkitty of the essential ye-ye girl blog Spiked Candy got in touch with me today to let me know that Bust Magazine has an article dedicated to the distaff side of ukulele. It features a number of acts that are well worth checking out:
Lady Carol (of the Moon): I’ve already featured Lady Carol and it’s great to see her getting more attention.
Miranda Mahalo:I’ve been a fan of Miranda for a long while. It was clear from the MySpace videos she made just a few weeks after she learnt to play that she was talented.
Paper Dolls: Trio featuring Uni and Her Ukulele that, “know every song ever written except three.”
Rose Harting: I must admit a completely new name to me and one I’m very happy to have discovered.
Sweet Soubrette: If you haven’t seen her MUD videos yet, get your arse in gear.
