Southampton Ukulele Jam
3:30 PM
Equal parts, a jam, a community, a social club, a ukulele ‘boot camp’ and a gigging band. Endeavouring to be a force for good; supporting worthwhile causes, raising money for charity and promoting tolerance, acceptance and diversity by playing good songs with more enthusiasm than ability on tiny instruments. Musically, they steer clear of traditional ukulele tunes, preferring instead to delve into a repertoire that runs from Kylie Minogue to The Clash via The Vaccines and Lady Gaga.

Matt Williams / Ronk Torp

Ronk Torp is a solo act with a Sonic Folk feel. I blend beautifully formed lyrics with lavish pedalboard effects producing a sound similar to Nick Drake as well as prog rock undertones. I live in Southampton and am looking forward to playing this summer and sharing my colourful Sonic Waves.
