Several band members of the Ukulele Jam playing live
Southampton Ukulele Jam
12:10 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.
