A cover of Jefferson Airplane's Today, done on electric uke with chorus, U-bass, and a little asalato in the mix somewhere. One of my favorite songs to sing, and yet I haven't done it as a #sundaysong before!

Haven't done a Sunday Song in a while, but here's one to close out the year: The Raconteurs' "You Don't Understand Me," rendered on #ElectricUke through an amp modeler pedal.

Okay, it's no longer Sunday, but I forgot to post my #SundaySong, so here it is – a lowkey acoustic version of The Only Ones' "Another Girl, Another Planet." Have always loved this song but never thought it could work on a #uke until hearing an acoustic version in the movie "London Town" – which is also highly recommended.

When I performed #Cracker's "Been Around The World" at #openmic this week I started it in a voice and tempo I'd never even thought of before, and found myself locked in and liking it. I can't quite capture the energy I felt with that sound booming out into the room, but this isn't a bad approximation either. Added some #KalaUBass and guess what? One take on that. Having a good week with this song!

Digging out the Country Joe and the Fish tunes lately. For this week's Sunday Song, I went with "Here I Go Again." Just live vocals and electric #uke.

This week's #SundaySong is Blondie's "Dreaming," which I've lately been trying a few different ways. This started with just me and my trusty U-Bass, and this morning I decided to add some electric uke. Some really electric uke.
As someone who's only been playing for a few years, a real late bloomer, it's still incredible to me that I can just DO this.

This week's #SundaySong was inspired by some first-time performers at #OpenMicNight who thought nothing of tackling a #MazzyStar song on their first outing – something that for some reason I thought daunting. But then I took up "Flowers in December" on the #ukulele, and whaddaya know? Not too bad, I think.

Okay, I came up with a set list for today's performance during our town's street art festival. It's definitely too long but I'll just scratch any of the upbeat songs.

This week's #SundaySong is Reina del Cid's "What I'm Losing," a song about life on the road and priorities. I usually do this on piano but have been quite taken with it on #ukulele lately. Added in some #KalaUBass because that's what I do.
