We Rocked some more this week, but first, my lovely guests were D’ukes
D’ukes
D’ukes are a quirky 8 piece ukulele band that has given the small four-stringed, two hundred year old, modest ukulele a makeover for the 21st century. The Essex based band features lead singers, backing vocalists, strumming ukuleles, dazzling solos, pounding bass and exciting percussion. The music is an eclectic mix. If it’s a good song, D’Ukes will take it apart, rebuild it and uke it up! A D’Ukes performance is fun (with a few surprises!) and guaranteed to get you smiling.
