The ukulele is the most popular bought instrument at present. Schools have changed from recorders to ukuleles as you can soon be playing tunes after learning only three chords.
Our ukulele band began in June 2016, and consists of enthusiastic players of all abilities. We meet at St Thomas Church Room (in the Market Place Market Rasen LN8 3HT) each Wednesday evening from 7 pm to 8.30 pm.
Whether you can already play or have never played before you are more than welcome to join us,(with or without a ukulele). Also, if you just like listening to a selection of well known tunes, performed with passion and gusto, why not join us at any of the public gigs shown below. Many of them are in aid of a charity and the bigger the audience the better!.
