Ukulele Noir / Boston
Ukulele Disco / New York
The ukulele is said to have come in 3 waves to the mainland of the United States. Those being the 20-30’s, 50’s and 90-00’s I really love this ukulele duo of Karen Langlie and Craig Robertson. It brings the 1st and 3rd waves into sweet unison. Karen has a such charm and Craig adds some prowess up the fingerboard to create some wonderful blends.

I wanted to create this blog as a place where I can store and retrieve information for future reference. I chose the name Humble Uker Ramblings because I have started out strumming my father's 1950's painted Harmony ukulele. I think that the greatest appeal of the ukulele as "the people's instrument" is it's humble simplicity. My contact email is HumbleUker@gmail.com. I have also been working on a blog for the Baritone Ukulele called Humble Baritonics.
