Very Bari Jam

An hour of strumming the very mellowest of the uke family. We’ll sing and play through a selection of easy to more challenging arrangements in DGBE tuning with stops along the way to discuss the special challenges and opportunities that the bari uke player encounters. Bring your bari and be prepared to get down!
