The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain
(UK)

A one-off fun gig in 1985 has grown into an all-singing, all-strumming ukulele collective presenting a collision of post-punk performance with toe-tapping golden oldies. Sitting in chamber group format in evening wear, the orchestra bounds from Tchaikovsky to Nirvana via Otis Reading and Spaghetti Western soundtracks with tongue firmly in cheek. 
 

Learn 3 songs & join the orchestra in their WOMADelaide workshop!
The UOGB has been performing worldwide for 27 years, touring "with only hand luggage". They are the original ukulele orchestra, and probably the premier ukulele show in the world.

Could you learn something from them? Can you cut it as a ukulele player if you join the UOGB live?  In preparation for this very special WOMADelaide workshop, the UOGB members have picked some songs which they've not played together before.  They will work on these songs with the live audience, with a Q&A session as part of the process.

The chords and lyrics for three of these songs, Like A Rolling Stone (Bob Dylan), Rolling in the Deep (Adele) and Weather with You (Crowded House) are below, so that everyone in the audience (with or without a ukulele) can join in.
