Hey UUers!
One of the most common questions here in the Underground goes a little something like this: "I can strum my uke ... and I can sing ... but how do I strum my uke AND sing at the same time?" Strumming and singing at the same time is a little like patting your head and rubbing your tummy - a little tough to coordinate at first, but with a little practice, anyone can do it!
Check out this week's episode of Uke Minutes, try it out on your favorite song, take it slow, and practice, practice, practice. The ukulele was designed to be a rhythm instrument, so memorize the lyrics to the point that you can sing them without even thinking and use your ukulele to keep the beat for you.
Hope you have a wonderful Saturday! THANK YOU for being a part of the Underground and for letting us tag along on your ukulele journey!
Aloha,

Great now i just have to learn to sing…
Thanks to you, always useful information with lots of dedicatio
Thanks UUers 🙂
For me, (if I know the lyrics pretty well) the main thing is to be confident with the strumming, particularly the chords.
