Maybe it's because Mandy Nolan and husband John Stevens have just eloped in Hawaii (setting a world wide trend followed by a Kardashion) ... how surprised and thankful were we to find our faces back on the cover of Seven, the entertainment section of the local paper –The Echo. Lets hope it brings in some nice Hawaiian outfits next Thursday 25 Feb. Thanks for the support Mandy and The Echo.

What a treat it was to be invited to play for the Blue Mountains Ukulele Festival 2016. We really had a blast. Our Friday night dinner show was as much fun as we have ever had. The audience was fantastic and having Michael Galeazzi on double bass and Bruce Reid on lap steel and banjo was heaven. Miss Amber became known as the woman in the green dress. Everyone was so supportive and appreciative and downright friendly. Thanks to Steve, The Blue Mugs, crew and all the organisers of such a wonderful festival.

We are very proud to be on the front cover of '7' the entertainment section of the ECHO, our local newspaper (Byron Bay and Mullumbimby). It is quite exciting that we have made it to 4 years old! Yay us.... 'we' means everyone who comes to the uke night. Much sincere thanks to you all.

This Thursday 30th April at The Courthouse Hotel. It's gonna be a ripper.

Yes it was Miss Amber's birthday on the same day as the Feb 2015 UKE NIGHT at the Courthouse Hotel in Mulliumbimby (last Thursday every Month). The night was dedicated to Miss Amber and she sang the bulk of the tunes. It was a corker... Check out the photos from Niche Pictures here.

Thanks to Lyn from Niche Pictures for this great shot from our performance in the Drill Hall with Rod Coe on bass, Rex Carter on Drums and Dan Reade on Piano and accordion. Shorts? Yep it was sweltering...

We had some awesome dance at this months Soul Motown and Disco Uke Night in Mullum with special guests Fiona Dell, Fiona Knight (The Fis) and Soulman O'Gaia. click here to see more photos.

 

We had a great rehearsal last night with special guests Kathryn Jones and Chris Mallory (pictured hi-fiving Miss Amber). This is the beginning of a run of three shows of 80s UKE NIGHTS; Mullumbimby, Ipswich and Tumbulgum. We have always wanted to be able to perform our shows more than just the once. If only we could take our crack band around to all the shows.

We will have Rod Coe on the Mullum and Tumbulgum shows playing his Fender precision bass to cope with the tricky 80s bass lines. Shelley Osland in Ipswich will also be playing electric. The Bowling club in Ipswich can't afford any news paper advertising for this one so we don't have any idea how many of you will show up. We'd love to work with a drummer in Ipswich though as there is no guarantee we don't know whether we will have enough through the door to go around.

If anyone wants to put their hand up for a bit of fun, please contact us. Hope we see you at a 80s Uke Night near you. STU
