Some Details...
NEW ZEALAND - As part of their whirlwind tour of New Zealand, the (garlanded) Ukes joined with over 2,000 ukulele-wielding students to play some classic tunes at a rehearsal for the Kiwilele Festival 2010. Read about it here or watch a clip. And, if you missed their appearance on TV3's Campbell Live, just click on this link to see it.
CARNEGIE HALL! - The Ukes have just played New York's Carnegie Hall - New York Times Review here. We also enjoyed this short clip.
UOGB on SKINS - The Ukes appeared on Channel 4's 'Skins' last year, as JJ's backing band. You can watch the clip here.
NEW CDS! - We have just re-released two albums from our back catalogue, Hearts of Oak (from 1989) and Pluck (1997). They are available to buy now from our Buy CDs & DVDs page, only £10 each.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION - It has been brought to the attention of The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain, that another organisation, claiming to have been playing in the UK and Europe since 1998, and to being "the cult sensation from London" is being promoted in Germany and Austria. The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain has nothing to do with this organisation. To read more about it, please click here.
SWEDEN and FINLAND April 2010 - You can watch how the Ukes coped after getting up at 4.30am to do Swedish Breakfast TV show, doing a country tune, an old rocker, and an interview (bizarrely, they were on after an interview with Saddam Hussein's mistress). From FINLAND, you can watch a clip of their live performance and an interview with Peter and Hester.
UOGB AT THE BBC PROMS - DVD AVAILABLE HERE! - A fantastic DVD of the Ukulele Orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall BBC Proms is available to order only here on our website. There are some photos of the concert on our Photos page, as well as a selection of the 1000+ ukulele players who came along to play on the night. Here's a short clip from the DVD, 'Prom Night'...
