We bring the sing-a-long joy of the ukulele to convalescent homes, adult day care centers, county fairs, Earth Day festivals, ukulele festivals, non-profit fundraisers, schools, conferences, community events of all kinds.

When everybody shows up, there are as many as 40 of us.

We have no rules but one: Come play when you feel like it.

Nineteen of us performed to a standing ovation at the New York Ukulele Festival in 2007. We were the "house band" at the Santa Cruz CA Ukulele Festival. We have been invited to perform at the 38th annual International Ukulele Festival in Honolulu HI on July 27, 2008, and the Nevada County Fair the folowing month.

We meet for class and rehearsal every Thursday at the Mason's Lodge above Caroline's Coffee on South Auburn Street in downtown Grass Valley CA. Everyone and all ages are welcome. We often have loaner ukes. No musical experience is necessary.
