Ukulele News - 22 January 2012

Another ukulele news round up from the past week.




A billionaire and his ukulele - US rich man and philanthropist Warren Buffett, somewhat bizarrely, plays I've Been Working On The Railroad on Chinese State TV for the New Year.

----------------------------------------------

Possibly the most eagerly awaited ukulele in history - Taylor Guitars launch their ukulele and guitar combo set at NAMM 2012. The downside? Only 30 sets will be made, and its rumoured to cost $14k

----------------------------------------------

And talking of NAMM, its good to see that the ukulele is standing tall.

----------------------------------------------

Another week, another news article telling us how great the ukulele is. This one from New Zealand describes it as the sound that loves the soul.

----------------------------------------------

The Blue Mountains Ukulele Group in Australia are planning to play a 7 concert marathon in 7 hours for Australia Day.

----------------------------------------------


More news next week.
