I feel really fortunate to have come across Howie and his Baritone Ukulele Tutorials. He played guitar in bands but says he lost his passion for playing and stopped playing for 12 years. But his son is playing guitar and his daughter Maisy has a teacher that bought a lot of ukuleles and is teaching the kids at the school in Wales. The teacher also started a FaceBook group called Ukuleles R Us. These tutorials are done for the music teacher.

Howie has his own way of doing things in his tutorials. He started off displaying his T-shirt Philosophy collection followed by computer generated cartoon images that synchronize with his head and body movements. But if you look at the TUTOR page (up above) you will find that he's playing many of the songs that young students might be listening to right now. For example, the song Forget You was on the U.S. TV show Glee last night.

I like the way that he gives his lessons along with strum patterns and sometimes while listening to the song while instructing.

Many of you have been checking out Howie's lessons on the TUTOR page. He's got an easy style to follow and here you finally get to see him face to face. Nice little trick to put on an Elvis face like this. There's a facebook page for his daughter Maisy's school program: UKULELES R US (Webcam Pro 9000)
