Program Description
Event Details
Taught by award winning artist, Lil' Rev, this class is sponsored by Kala Ukuleles for the benefit of the absolute beginner. You don’t need any experience or even a ukulele — we’ll provide one for you! All you need to do is show up! Learn all the basics: from how to hold a ukulele, to basic strums, to a cache of simple two- and three-chord songs, and much more!
Lil' Rev was born and bred in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with dual passions for music and education. After college he taught music to grade schoolers at the Milwaukee Jewish Day School and served as an adjunct music historian and lecturer at The University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. After many years of performing in the Midwest, Lil' Rev left his teaching jobs behind to pursue his musical dreams full-time. Since then, he has traveled hundreds of thousands of miles, visited every state in the Union (except Alaska and Hawaii), wrote almost a dozen instructional books, recorded over a dozen albums and taught thousands of students ukulele and harmonica.
Preregistration is required. Open to adults and teens.
*If you have your own ukulele to bring, please note it in the comments section so that we may allow more people into the class.
