Hello again, uke lovers. This gallery is entirely devoted to the uke in all its beauteous and lyrical wonder.
Take a look at Part One and Part Three for the full picture.
Continuing our newly minted tradition of featuring You Tube Uke Sensations, here is Julia Nunes (any relation to one of the 19th-century creators of the uke, Manuel Nunes, we ask wonderingly?) enjoying herself and entertaining her millions of fans:

These images are fabulous and capture the happiness & joy of playing and sharing the Ukulele. The festival was so much fun and it was a pleasure to host Uke Stars and enthusiasts from all over Australia and overseas who all enthusiastically shared their love of the Ukulele with Brisbane.
Love it 🙂
Lorrie and I really enjoyed being at the festival. The people were lovely, the atmosphere supportive and welcoming, and the music and performances were so memorable. I still have songs playing in the back of my mind every so often. Good on everyone who organised, volunteered, sponsored, and performed.
