I’ve always been fond of the ukulele. Some of my favourite bands (Dent May, Beirut) feature the ukulele and it always makes me happy. Last Christmas, my dear friend Rebecca and I unknowing bought each other ukuleles and I’ve been practicing away in my spare time ever since.
This summer was my AMAZING grandparent’s 60th wedding anniversary party and family members flew in from all over Canada (mostly Newfoundland) to celebrate the remarkable couple. My brother (centre in the picture) wrote an awesome Newfie stomp song commemorating the milestone and invited me to join him on ukulele and my soul mate to round out our trio with a little accordion.
So here we are, rocking it out with our debut performance!
