Ukulele Philosophy
The Ukulele is the friendliest instrument I know. I travel with my Ukulele, and whenever people see it, they ask me to play something for them. No other instrument has that kind of effect on people, inspiring strangers to ask for a song no matter where you are.
Tip for Beginners
Music always tells a story, the Ukulele is the best way to tell others about yourself and your passion. Play for fun..play for your friends...play from the heart. You can never go wrong.
