UKULELE

My friend, Cherie B. Tay is awesome. She and I play Ukulele together sometimes.

 

Brunch turned into a recording session! Here's the lead sheet: https://www.dropbox.com/s/exljv2i38776930/Save%20Me%20-%20Queen.pdf?dl=0 Recorded - 5/19/15 Released - 6/1/15

Kurt came up with this mash up for Carlos. It includes songs from both his projects - Rent, and On Your Feet. Added some Cuban percussion for the Cuban! Dear copyright people - we're singing the lyrics "hap ebirf day two ewe" to the melody of "Good Morning to All", which is in public domain.

Kurt got some new toys, and we recorded this little ditty as a test run! Recorded - 11/23/15

We finally got the time to get together to record on Cinco de Mayo! Here's our instrumental version of "Almost Like Being In Love" from Brigadoon featuring Kurt on an Ohana Concert Uke. Also features sirens, trains, and jackhammering from a Brooklyn rooftop.

My good friend, Kurt, is a brilliant musician. While we were on tour with IN THE HEIGHTS, he would chart out a bunch of Broadway songs to play on the uke. This is one of our favorites! We decided to record it on my trip back to NYC.

Kurt is back again with our favorite song to play on tour. We've played this in countless hotel rooms and even did it an open mic night! Kurt came up with the sweet arrangement on the 2nd uke. NYC Recorded - 10/31/14 Released - 11/1/14

Kurt and I did a mash up of Viva La Vida (Coldplay), Bad Romance (Lady Gaga), Titanium (David Guetta), There's A Place For Us (West Side Story). This was totally impromptu, and Kurt came up with it in an hour! Genius. NYC Recorded - 3/12/14 Released - 3/16/14

I've had "What's Up" by the 4 Non Blondes stuck in my head since watching Sense 8 on Netflix. This video sums up the past 2 weeks from the celebratory SCOTUS ruling, to Pride weekend, to being hit by a car on bike, to 4th of July weekend and fireworks from the neighbor's roof!

Kurt tabbed out more Sondheim on tour. Here's our ITH Music Trio reunion featuring Kurt on lead and Kat on harmonies. NYC Recorded - 10/14/13 Released - 1/19/14

My love, Carlos Gonzalez, made this video for my dad of old cars in Havana, Cuba. I make a ukulele cameo at the end...
