Ukulele For Beginners

Previously titled 'Get Plucky With The Ukulele' Over 30,000 copies sold worldwide!

I’ve written a book about the whys, the hows and the whos of the ukulele. It’s probably the only book you’ll ever need about the ukulele, though I say so myself.

This book was originally published as ‘Get Plucky With the Ukulele’ so if you already have that, don’t buy this, it’s the same book!

Read the reviews on Amazon here.

“Just as much fun as taking a new uke out of its case, and even more informative.” Philip Pullman

“Witty, informative and opinionated. I heartily recommend picking up a copy.” Ukulele Hunt (Al Wood)

“As someone who seems to spend all my waking hours immersed in the ukulele, I learned much from this book. Beautifully presented and illustrated throughout… Highly recommended.” Got A Ukulele (Barry Maz)

Play Along With the Book

To accompany the ‘How to Play’ section of the book, I’ve recorded some stripped-down versions of all the songs in the book so that you can play along with me. Wait for the little blue ‘Play’ buttons to appear below the song titles and then get strumming.

If you have problems seeing or hearing the tracks on this page, please click HERE to go to my Soundcloud page, where you can listen to and download all the tracks to your computer.
