    Workshop Information

    Soulful Singing and Playing on the Ukulele invites attendees to loosen up their body, free their spirit and let their voice be heard! This ukulele and vocal workshop focuses on relaxing the muscles and approaching your playing with a loose and soulful attitude to uncover dynamic moments in our playing and singing. When we find the rhythm in music, the movement in our bodies, and the soul in our voices, we can give better performances, achieve a higher level of playing, and have a lot of fun. All levels of experience are welcome. We will use basic chords and sing as a group. Attendees will be challenged to play their ukuleles standing up with small movements, if they are able and comfortable.

    • Workshop and Concert: Members: $15.00, Non-Members: $20.00
    • Concert Only: $10.00
      All tickets are sold at the door (Cash, Venmo, or Credit Card)
