Ukulele - Blog Posts
this is definitely not my normal content on here, but I was really proud of it (and you can already tell I love adventure time) so HERE IT IS!
Tuning the plasitic rainbowukulele in the flying tiger and hoping you can actually play on it some day without it sounding like hell broke loose
Here’s a drawing of mine of me playing the ukulele. Yes, I play this instrument irl.
They asked if I had a hobby
A cousin asked if I had any hobbies. I said, "I got an $18 Ukulele." Now, I have to learn how to play the damn Portuguese Instrument from the free Ukulele lessons I signed up for about a month ago, but have yet to surpass the introductory phase.
I am listening
... to Jake Shimabukuro's CD "Live," which is very similar to the concert of his that I witnessed earlier this month. Which is to say, "It is friggin' brilliant." In my opinion, this guy is so much better playing solo than with a backup band [caveat emptor re: his newest CD].
A ukulele? You kidding me?
Another contribution to the #drawthisinyourstyle challenge, because I just can‘t stay away🙈@loukoumh is such a cool artist✨
Do you all know 杨可爱Yang Ke’ai yet?
She does lots of popular covers and mash-ups and “how to memorize 5-50 Chinese poems via music” songs in a Classical Chinese style (chinoiserie?) with a UKULELE. If you’re not watching her beautiful videos of her singing and playing music in full hanfu, you’d think she was playing a Pipa or a Guzheng or even a Guqin, but, no — that’s a Ukulele.
Anyway, have you all heard her Mo Dao Zu Shi mashup yet? 14 songs from Audio Drama, Donghua, and Fan Music (a lot of the creators of which were also part of the Audio Drama and Donghua).
It’s awesome and deserves many many views. Enjoy!

It’s a Southern Water Tribe song about the waterbender genocide, in case anyone was wondering.
