This is probably the best ukulele playing I’ve ever seen.
Okay so this is a real effort into playing the ukulele and I’m so happy they take it as seriously as they do
It’s always wild when people are amazed by proper Ukulele playing because what they consider “good” is whatever mainlanders are attempting to play while asserting some “quirky” vibe. Ukulele has become trendy on the mainland and people are amazed by what we consider BASIC skills and boring same chord repetition over and over. PLUS malihini don’t even pronounce the name right (what the fuck is a yuu-kuu-lay-lee hahaha).
Here in Hawaiʻi we are busting it out (like these killer wahines) every day in ways you can’t even imagine. Half my nā hoahānau play like this!
We stay laughing. These wahines choke deadly.
They’re Honoka & Azita, internationally ranked ukelele players with original music and albums out. Heres a link to their facebook
