Stukulele became my 'persona' when I became a ukulele instructor in 2011 (not to be confused with Stu Fuchs, a mentor and a mighty fine player and teacher). I am from Mullumbimby, Northern New South Wales, Australia and a James Hill Ukulele Initiative Certified Level 3 teacher. I began playing ukulele at age 42 (in 2009) when I was gifted one for Father's day. Things have not been the same since. My 6-year-old daughter landed me my first teaching job at her primary school… then came community colleges… after 4 terms my students asked where do we go now? A monthly UKE NIGHT – Uke Mullum, led by my partner Miss Amber and me... 'Stukulele' was born in July, 2011 in the middle of our winter… over 200 people showed up on a Wednesday night. Then I began creating monthly themed UKE NIGHTS, which consisted of choosing a theme, picking 20 + songs that fit the theme, to deliver the songbook. Then I'd assemble the best vocalists and musicians to present the themed set live for an audience of folk who'd sing and strum along. It was a month-long process in which I learned and taught songs that I had never played or sometimes even heard of. Why you may ask? Because I love it. Music is the language of love and keeps your brain active, staving off all the ravages of old age. The Ukulele makes the whole process so enjoyable and achievable. Broaden your repertoire, mind, ukulele skills, compassion, and speak the language of love, and be a part of a community of like-minded folk.
