@dianna you are so right. It does calm the mind and I have a quiet corner to practice. Appreciate the encouragement. Brighter days always follow. 🌞🤗☺️. Thinking of the words to “Here comes the sun”
Ok decided to pick some Blues
Tackling EP017 working on major triads, lots of bluesy slides/hammer-onsI’ll work on getting through lesson and memorizing the piece. Using my low G tenor
Practice as much as my fingers will take with all the slides 😬
Real challenge will be to record final take with the backing track. My technical ability hasn’t been great pairing everything so THAT is as much of a challenge. And last but not least… get me out of this winter, post holiday cloud. Ps if I change my mind… I’ll let you know by 15th. Louisa
All great plans people… I’m currently in a bit of a funk. I’ll spend time this afternoon looking through courses and lessons. Nothing seems to jump out, my music is all over the place right now 😕🙃 life….
@otzepeng love it. Super cute. Merry Christmas 🎄👏🎼🕎 Louisa
Wow Justin👏👏👏👏👏👏 @jbmills07 the luck runs deep. Congratulations pretty exciting. Merry Christmas everyone
@shmu88 wow I think you get the prize! Very impressive. Your speed, slides all played on your new blue Uke. I loved it p.s. definitely not my favorite song either ☺️😁🎄 Merry Christmas
@grannieannie Way to go! How cool those lyrics go with HARK the Hearld. Nicely done. Merry Christmas. Welcome to the bonus track group 😆☺️🎄🕎
@grannieannie that’s a great story about your sister having a banjo ukulele that you had limited access too.😊 reminds of my older sisters record collection and it was usually “hands off” 😁
I love the banjo and folk music in general so it’s the closest I’ll get to creating that sound.
Once again @the_bumble_bard Merry Christmas friend. Look forward to more sharing in 2025!Great entries for FELIZ NAVIDAD. so impressed. It really was a tough one to tackle… maybe I’ll try it sometime. @marianne sold me on Oh Come All Ye, early on so stuck with that.
Good luck everyone 🎄👍🎼🕎@abster. Always enjoyable to watch you and your sister has a lovely voice! FELIZ NAVIDAD to you and your family
Wow @the_bumble_bard thank you for the encouragement and positive vibes !
So fun to listen to the entries and let this community know how great they are. After being a member for five years (pretty sure) we’ve gotten to know so many and see improvement. You have really expanded your range. I like your free-style. I don’t feel as comfortable but trying … hence my bonus track 😁
Have an amazing holiday music penpal 🎄🎼🎼🎁
@bomarkt love chopsticks… ok… now we need to know where on a boat 🤔. Sounds like a song to me ☺️@andrew thank you! Think I have long road ahead on the banjoUke but it sure is fun.
@willw18 Loved your rendition!
I AM A PREMIUM MEMBER
Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays to everyone!
I chose O Come All Ye Faithful, as well. It’s tricky using only your thumb – I agree what @clempek said. Making it sound and flow isn’t easy. Nicely played Clem.I put a bonus piece on the end – just for fun and playing around with my 100 yr. old banjo Uke. I attempted claw hammer but it wasn’t any better than what I did do 😁
Thank you Andrew and all the team. So much fun to really challenge myself each month with a great selections of music. THIS GROUP ROCKS!
I donated $20 to the Kids Uke group. Hope they can purchase tons of equipment for the kids.
