A joyful day long immersion into ukulele playing followed by a concert! Stu (aka "Stukulele") is totally excited to be returning to The Villages with another super day of ukulele workshops and a special concert. This year's theme will be "Rockabilly for the Ukulele: Uke-a-billy"...in other words: Go cat go!!!
In this workshop Stu Fuchs will teach rockabilly & classic rock n roll guitar styles adapted for ukulele. Youll play classic songs and learn to make your ukulele emulate style of rockabilly rhythm & lead playing. Well play lots of FUN & EASY songs from Carl Perkins, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, The Beatles and more. Youll come away with a deep understanding of 12 bar blues form, pentatonic riffs, and how to decorate your strumming with boogie-woogie stylings that are guaranteed to get toes -a-tappin! Stu orchestrates the group into a super fun multi-part band.
Open to ALL LEVELS of player, beginner to advanced. After the workshop Stu will play a short set of his solo ukulele music and then hanging out for an informal meet and greet. Looking forward to seeing you there!
