Day 40: Jamaica Farewell on banjolele - Harry Belafonte // #100DaysofUkuleleSongs
I research every song before I record it - as a songwriter, I like having some context for where/when the song was written and who wrote it. I learned that Jamaica Farewell actually comes from a genre of Jamaican folk music called mento. Mento is related to Trinidadian calypso but is traditionally played with folk instruments - banjo, acoustic guitar, hand percussion, fiddle, fife. Kind of like creole bluegrass reggae. So cool! So naturally, that helped me select the banjolele for this tune - I was inclined to choose it before my research, and thanks to the internet for confirming my intuition!

#100DaysofUkuleleSongs is part of a community creative project called #The100DayProject that encourages artists to practice their process for 100 days. (you should do it too!)
I'm committing to 100 days of recording and publishing a video each day of myself playing a song on the ukulele. Through this project, I hope to:
- get faster at the technical aspects of recording good video with high-quality audio
- come up with new arrangements daily and learn new songs
- improve my ukulele skills
- find good workarounds for recording while i travel
- build a habit of sharing music daily
