Lenka - she is fabulous and her music helped me get through some tough times.
I also like Ben Folds, Christy Jefferson, The Fratilies and The Aquabatts.

Play Musical Instruments?
Started almost 4 years ago · Last post 4 months ago ·
I played clarinet for almost 10 years.
I tried to teach myself banjo but failed miserably.
I am now trying to teach myself ukulele - which seems a lot easier than the banjo.

Interesting instruments?
Started 9 months ago · Last post 7 months ago ·
I am taking a ukulele class in a few weeks. I am super excited about it.
I played bass clarinet for many year. Its unusual in the sense that it doesn't look a like a regular clarinet. However, its expensive and not very portable.
I love the banjo and once tried to teach myself how to play it. Sadly, it didn't go to well.
How about - bagpipes, panpipes, oboe, harmonica, recorder, piccolo, accordion, crwth (A welsh string instrument) banjo ukulele (I have seen these on ebay. I am really curious about them)

Ukulele
Started 10 months ago · Last post 10 months ago ·
I am thinking about taking a beginners ukulele class and we are required to bring our own instrument.
Does anyone know anything about the best beginner brand of ukulele to buy? I am hoping to spend under $75/£50.
Thanks in advance. :)

Any Music Recommendations?
Started about 1 year ago · Last post 7 months ago ·
I definitely recommend Ben Folds. Some of his lyrics can be a bit over the edge, but his earlier stuff is fabulous. Check out 'Whatever ever Amen' or his recent CD that he did with Nick Hornsby called 'Lonley Avenue'.
What part the States are you in? There is a Philly based musician named Christy Jefferson. Her music is mainly piano/guitar based which mellow yet fun.
