ISSUE 10
Issue 10's June 2017 release represents a strong start to UKE Magazine's third year as the UK's only dedicated, printed magazine for ukulele players. Headlining this issue are Dead Mans Uke, a father and son team who demonstrate just how cool the ukulele can be with their swinging, bluesy style.

We have an article on great ukulele advice and where to find it, a lesson from Phil Doleman and an exercise to do at home on writing your own song lyrics.
