Groovy Banana, videographers from Vanuatu, have such a beautiful sensibility, and such skill.
This video is the latest collaboration between Benoit and Ga-ga and Mark and Jane, filmed in the Lower Hunter region of NSW, Australia. The Ukulele Community in our area has been vibrant for a decade, and the joy shows.

Communities at Lake Macquarie, Newcastle and Port Stephens went to massive efforts to make this a success. Thanks also to the Newkulele Festival who chipped in a tidy sum to affray some of the expenses, as did myriad ukestrans. A real community effort.

Robbie Long from Funky Lizard Studios made us sound beautiful on Ruth McCrae's arrangement. You can hear the voices, ukes and bass of John Wallace, Jane, me, and Ruth, with Caroline Traill and Barry Hill (of Uke Dirty Rats) on lead vocals.

The Hunter's locations just shone (as they can only do) and we are proud to have this video. Please share the video if you feel it reflects your mood, your local pride, your love of Powderfinger, or your begrudging love of things ukulele that brings people together and makes a rock song sound so sweet.

And if you want to learn ukulele in the Newcastle region of Australia, come to one of our ukestras or a beginners session at www.ukestra.com.

If you live elsewhere in the world, COVID has shown us new online options for learnings, so have a look at www.zookestra.com (That's a Zoom Ukestra). Fun, educational and international!
