Hello all!
I am a 41 year old father of 3 and have just started playing ukulele (less than a month). I used to play bass guitar in local bands and have always loved playing music with and for others. I wanted to learn ukulele so that my boys and I can sit around and play songs at family gatherings and holidays. I was never exposed to playing instruments in my youth, and I did not want my children to miss the great experience of learning music at an early age.
I cannot read music and never learned music theory, but I am determined to learn this instrument. With work and commuting, I do not have time to go to traditional music lessons (not to mention the cost). After seeing the YouTube videos posted by UU, I decided that it was worth checking out. The content was always professional and educational (and fun!). I am hoping that I can go far in my journey with this site and this community.
