Santa Clause is Coming to Town – Friday Ukulele Covers #9
Posted by admin on November 26th 2021 @ 6:34 pm
We watched Santa comin’ to town on at the close of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade yesterday, so I thought this was an appropriate selection to kick off some holiday and Christmas tunes. Sorry for the less than perfect sound of my camera … I lost the audio on the separate recorder I had going and didn’t have time to go back. Hope you enjoy anyway! Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!
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."
