World Play Your Ukulele Day!
February 3 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm
It’s World Play Your Ukulele Day!! To celebrate, the Mentone Ukes has a great line up for this special session on Saturday, February 3rd. Our warm-up song will be This Land is Your Land by Woodie Guthrie. Two new songs will be introduced. Our own Lila Roberts will demo a classic uplifting hymn entitled Till the Storm Passes By, and afterwards the group will play it together. Our other new song was released in 1982 by the band Whitesnake and is entitled Here I Go Again. This song starts slowly and then builds in energy. It has an interesting strumming pattern. We will also play Wagon Wheel, Brown Eyed Girl, Your Cheating Heart, and our closing song will be Plastic Jesus. All songs are available for download on our Facebook page or on our website www.mentoneukes.com. As always, newcomers and absolute beginners of all ages are always welcomed to attend our free sessions, and a beginner’s ukulele class is offered at the same time as our regular session. This promises to be a great session so plan to join us at 1:00 PM CT on Saturday and bring a friend! Strum and be happy.
