Warm holiday greetings, ukulele friends!

The Austin Ukulele Society is thrilled to host one of the hottest ukulele performers and teachers touring the US today: Lil Rev! He’ll be conducting a workshop and house concert right here in Austin on Thursday, January 17.

The Workshop: Hot Licks for Ukulele
90 action-packed minutes of classic rock, blues, and jazz hot licks for ukulele! You’ll learn intros, endings, turnarounds, licks, fills, riffs and how to use them.
