Durham Uke Orchestra plays the Marvell

The DUO is excited to play another gig at the Marvell Events Center this Wednesday night, October 29th. Doors open at 9. DUO plays, we think, at 11. We love this club, a funky little place with a great vibe in downtown Durham. We'll be playing, in addition to our usual offerings, some tunes chosen for their halloween appropriateness. Come join the fun!

Bookulele fun

We had a great time at Bookulele on Friday night. The Friends School group was fun. The ukulele costumes were cool to see. And the DUO had a great time playing for a really enthusiastic, supportive audience. We even played our first "Encore!" ever. Special thanks to George Michaels, who led us in a fantastic version of The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea. George, we hope to play with you again! And our young guest performer AJ: Wow! Thanks for joining us! Extra special thanks to Lee and Christine at High Strung for making the show happen, and to Broad Street Cafe for giving us space to play.

BOOkulele!

The second annual Bookulele show, hosted by High Strung, is happening this Friday night, October 24th, at the Broad Street Cafe in Durham. Performances of halloween and other music by the kids from the Friends' School ukulele class (wait until you hear their set list: awesome!), and the Durham Ukulele Orchestra, joined by some special guests. Check out the uke costume contest - best dressed ukuleles win some great prizes. All ages enthusiastically welcomed. Festivities start at 7 p.m. Free admission. Hope to see you there!
