Testimonials

Kevin is a man on a ukulele mission, I’ve been playing the ukulele for 25 years, and I thought I’d heard it all. Then Kevin comes along with this ‘resolUKEtion’ album and brings a fresh perspective to the instrument. His love for folk, blues and roots music really comes out. Plus, he’s a really nice guy and a passionate teacher of the instrument. ” - James Hill: Canadian Ukulele Legend
I got your Ukulele Ceilidh book in the mail a few weeks ago and am really enjoying it! I grew up playing the fiddle and one of the things that I often wished the tune books included was chords. Often if there were chords, it seemed like they were an after thought. I really appreciate that your book includes the chords and I am enjoying the beautiful chord voicings you chose for the tunes I’ve played so far. Thanks for a great book! ” - Catherine
"Kevin is a gem and one of the most gifted teachers I have ever met. Last summer I bought a banjo uke on a whim and decided to start taking lessons with much trepidation...by the end of the year I was happily performing at a coffee shop with a ukestra! I continue to feel blessed by Kevin's presence, skill, attention, patience, personality, and highly individualized teaching style. In addition to deeply encouraging me to follow my musical tendencies, he genuinely wants the best for his students at a personal level. He not only is the real deal musically, sharing the fruits of a truly impressive career, but has also committed himself to the art of education. I leave classes feeling better musically and personally. Of note - he very deliberately tailors around my musical anxiety, so beginners never fear! Very honored to know and have a chance to work with Kevin and highly recommend him to anyone looking to add a little ukulele joy in their life." ” - Austin Student 2024
