I often suggest to my students that they watch the great uke players as well as listen to them. You can learn a lot just by watching. One of the great places to do this is HI*Sessions, a youtube channel that occasionally features some of the greatest ukulele players of our day, all in up-close-and-personal hi-def. Here are the episodes featuring some of my favorite players (you can skip the intros with the little navigation arrows at the bottom of the player) . . .

Kalei Gamiao

James Hill

Aldrine

Herb Ohta Jr.

Taimane


Ryan's favorite starter ukulele: The Enya Nova U Concert Ukulele 23” on Amazon sounds great, is easy to play, in tune and nearly indestructable. "I left it in the car through the heat of summer to see what would happen, and it still plays beautifully."
