this was the first song ive ever heard played on ukulele before, and it was a great first impression. This guy is very tallented as you already know, we need more artist like this in our mainstream. The view of music was forever changed into a galavanting of mostly bad music and good looks. Music needs to find its roots, and revert to stuff like this. Great job, plain and simple.

thats just amazing!!!!! never heard something like this before! i'm speechless!
By horus88 1154452153 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove2069441 - Anyone know who made his ukulele?
Does anyone have an idea what model his ukulele is? It has a beautiful tone to it, to get that kind of sound from that small an instrument, there must be some expert craftsmanship in that! (If anyone knows please reply to my comment. cheers!)

Thanks for the reply. But i'm very sad to say that not only do I not live near that area but i don't even live on the same continent. Or for that matter in the same hemisphere. I'm an aussie.

By unixef 1163721542 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI saw this guy play at the Telluride Bluegrass Festival a few years back. He had the audience enthralled. I had a chance to meet him briefly while I was there, he's a soft spoken unassuming, and friendly person. I am glad to see so many people appreciate his talent and wish him the best.

That was amazing. I challenge any of our commercial-pop icons to produce or even perform something like that -- it could never happen. Bookmarked :)

By Viktory 1149033866 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI have been a classical musician all my life and... only a handful of performances have brought tears to my eyes. Great song choice man... Not only impressive technique but even though some people would see the repetitions as a barrier you made them sing man... you made them sing. I'll definitely try to use ukulele in my future projects...
Please post more.

You bought the room to silence, no one moved, no one spoke. Mesmerised by a wonderfully gifted musician. Keep playing. Katlin1
By katlin1 1146260197 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveGreat melody, strumming, and lead of his music... very touchable and soft to hear

"while my guitar gently weeeeps"!
i prefer this version lol
gorgeous.. keep it up..
By Na$.....)) 1139985145 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI'm a musician myself, and very much a purist when it comes to music. I love instrumental music, i always believe that if the player is a good virtuoso, then he/she should be able to make his/her instrument sing for them. This gentleman truly has great talent and technical ability. Beautiful to listen to. And can convey all emotions needed through his ability. Keep up the good work!
(If he has a cd out could someone let us know. And if its out in Australia. Cheers.)
One of the most beautiful, musical, and technically impressive things I've ever heard played on any instrument, much less a uke. Does this guy sell CDs?
By bugdoc 1139463661 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveMagic fingers bravo,hope to hear you play someday or at leat buy your cd all the best you are very talented....
By ombiet 1139353823 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveYou go dude! I'm in a band and I play and sing that song on the piano. I sound like a grade schooler compared to you. Do you have a web site?

By ichichbinich 1137298571 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemovePlaying a song that was meant for a different instrument is always harder. And this guy is playing almost all the parts of the song, vocals, lead guitar, and rhythm guitar, with just the ukulele. It's great.
By hobbes3 1135831419 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removewow great song, i never heard any of my friends trying to play it, but this guy is awesome
By chrisdarmanin 1135548914 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI cant believe how stuck up your own arse you are, making judgements like that, do you realise how hard it is to play a string instrument? Seriously, it takes years to perfect a technique. I think it would comical to see someone as big headed as you trying to play that.

By 1132028549 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveJust like Stanley Jordan, amazing technical prowess, expanding the vocabulary of his instrument, an innovator, yada yada yada. But it is ultimately just muzak to my ears.
I'd like to hear him do something more edgy, less Windham Hilly.
HAVEN'T SEEN OR HEARD ANY ONE PLAY LIKE THAT LATELY
By 1132026312 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI learned to play that when I was 13

This guy is "fantastic" to say the least. But can u use your imagination and wonder what it would be like if he teamed up with that "incredible guitar" guy.
