Ukulele, Sunshine Strummers
The The Sunshine Strummers meets every Monday from 2.45pm to 4.00pm, at the Men in Sheds venue, with an enthusiastic group of 25 ukulele players. For further information, please contact Gary or Hazel Hughes.
It has been a great start to 2024 for the Sunshine Strummers U3A Ukulele Group with record attendances at recent Monday afternoon sessions at Men in Sheds in First Lane, Anlaby.
New players are always welcome and with the help of a short introductory programme beginners can quickly progress to the main group. The Group started the year with the theme of ‘Feel Good Tunes’ to brighten up a cold and wet January and February period. Songs have included Happy Together, Glad All Over, Union of Different Kinds and My Favourite Things.
A tour of Lighthouses is planned for later in the Spring and Summer with songs linked to the sea and hopefully Fish and Chips to follow the performance.
Amazingly, bookings are already coming in for Christmas 2024 and concerts are scheduled throughout the year with a busy Easter period already planned. Two venues with concerts in February and March have requested that we play a Rock and Roll Set list, so this will be our next theme to get us back into performance shape.
If interested in joining the Sunshine Strummers please contact us.
