“Tucson Ukulele Uprising (TUKU), originally founded in 2011 as Tucson Ukulele Meetup (TUM), is a member-run, not-for-profit community music club whose goal is to bring together interested adults for playing ukulele and singing for personal enjoyment. All ukuleles are welcome: soprano, concert, tenor, baritone, guitarlele, and banjolele. Bass instruments, such as the U-Bass, double-bass, cello, and bass guitar will also be considered. We share our ukulele knowledge and have fun playing and singing all kinds of music — pop, blues, folk, bluegrass, country, gospel, rock, soul, and more. Ukulele beginners are welcome!”
