How to Play Ukulele

Dan Scanlan has been many things—an English teacher, news reporter, songwriter, software programmer, layout artist, community radio personality—but the ukulele has been with him for more than sixty years. His Strum Bums ukulele orchestra was featured in the Mighty Uke documentary, and he coordinated the return of the ukulele to its ancestral home in Madeira Island, Portugal in 1998, culminating in a performance at the Lisbon World’s Fair. He also authored the interactive ebook Cool Hand Uke’s Way To Love Uke! Dan has taught the ukulele for thirty years and has several thousand online ukulele students in seventy-two countries.
