The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain

Ever since we first heard them playing 'Leaning on a Lampost' in the Russian style on 'Loose Ends' we have been fans of The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain.  They are responsible for a great deal of smiling and laughing in our house as we listen to CDs and introduce them to friends and relatives who visit us.

I challenge you to watch this clip and not smile:

Lots more people will know them now following their appearance at the Proms when 1000 people brought their ukuleles and everyone played together:

Joyous.

This link takes you to their website where you can have a look around at dates for their future concerts, (Just Go.... you won't be disappointed), podcasts of other songs, their CDs and DVDs and even lessons in how to play your own ukulele:
