HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
As 2018 comes to a close, I'd like t
o thank everyon
e that
supported my ukulele instruction endeavors for another year. Thanks to all of you that attended a workshop or festival event where I was teaching. Thanks also to all the promoters, music store owners and club leaders who invited me to take part in their events. I was lucky enough to visit Scotland again this year, to visit Canada a number of times and travel extensively throughout the United States spreading the gospel of getting off the book. This was also the year I ended six years of living on the road full-time in my Airstream trailer. I'm really looking forward to my new start in Albuquerque, New Mexico. So from me and mine to you and yours, have a great holiday season and a fabulous 2019!

Map of Major Keys, Map of Minor Keys, and
144 Chord Chart. No more using clothes pins to hold open your chord book. These sturdy, laminated charts stand on their own! Other great features include chords to every major and minor key, chord progression builder, famous song progressions and more. You can order your nifty new chord charts

TAKE A TOUR OF MY WEBSITE
I've produced a three-minute video tour of my website.
Watch the video and see the wealth of FREE content offered. I began my online ukulele presence almost ten years ago so you won't run out of things to learn anytime soon.

FROM THE MAILBAG
"
Your DVD taught me more, and so gave me more enjoyment, in an hour than 6 months teaching trying to master the uke. I paid a lot for 'pro' music teachers who confused me and took the joy out of my learning experience. It just became a chore."
