Uke Around The World

We are watching ALL the shows onboard the ship! Last night we saw Mark Preston from The Letterman group. He sang a song that I grew up listening to and LOVED because of the easy singing melody. The kids have heard their Bubby sing this song to them as well. They recognized the song immediately!

The song for today’s Ukevember is also a great example of a shortcut you can use to help with chord transitions. The example in this tune is when you move from G to Em, you can keep your G chord shape, and add your pinky on the 3rd string+4th fret. It makes the transition from one chord to the next easier! You might have to work through the placements of fingers a bit before it feels comfortable.
