about

Hold onto your fretboards, folks—we are beyond lucky to have the internationally renowned Chris ‘Ukulele’ Uff joining us for a masterclass that’s sure to knock your socks off (preferably in time to a jaunty rag rhythm).

Chris is serving up Twelfth Street Rag, a toe-tapping classic from 1914 that became a ukulele staple during the roaring ‘20s and is still a crowd-pleaser today. You’ll get printed chords and step-by-step instructions, but that’s just the start.

He’ll be diving into all the juicy techniques—triplets, thumb rolls, split strokes—that turn a good tune into a showstopper. And who better to learn from than someone with world-class skills and a heart full of vintage charm?

Whether you’re a total technique newbie or just looking to polish up your ragtime razzle-dazzle, this is a golden chance to learn from one of the best in the biz.

Bring your uke, your best grin, and get ready to strum like it’s 1914. Don’t miss it!
