Uke Bass Carol TABS On my Ko-Fi Page!

11/30/2023

Tis the season! And as there is a definite lack of carol TABS for ukulele bass, I 've been arranging traditional carols for it. Go to my Ko-Fi page here and for a tiny donation for my time in making it you'll get a downloadable PDF to print. More carols are coming, and they also work for bass guitar (which I also play).
In addition I'll be adding carol TABS for ukulele in 5ths tuning (GDAE) as I'm seeing that tuning is getting to be more popular. I enjoy the arranging, and it keeps me busy when my cat Miyuki is asleep.
Also- my soprano/concert uke headstock toppers will be for sale in my Ko-Fi shop as well. I'm making Christmas themed ones at the moment.
Remember that a ukulele makes the perfect gift for anyone at nearly any age who wants to get into making music! Or, if they already play, a songbook for ukulele makes a great gift also.

Tis The Season We Learn Holiday Tunes!

If you're new to ukulele, you'll probably be thinking "Halloween just ended and it's too early for carols." It honestly isn't. Just 10 min. a day working on a carol till you have it memorized and smooth means you may have a handful of holiday tunes you can play for family get togethers, at your place of worship, the holiday office party, you get the idea. And you'll be amazed at how much progress you make by playing those 10 min. a day!
Just to toss a few ideas out there for caroling, you may want to look into playing carols at hospitals. Trust me- the worst time to be in a hospital is during the holidays. If you're interested, check with the hospital you're considering playing for first and see what their rules are and to get permission. Senior community villages are another place you could consider playing at. Again, call first and see what the people in charge have to say about carolers visiting.
And to toot my own horn, the pic you see at the top of this article is a headstock topper I made for soprano ukes! I'm making other designs as well and they'll soon be up for sale in my store on Bonanza.
