Are you stuck strumming your favorite songs in the same old way? Join the boys from BAS as we explore ways to ?break the habit!? We will try finger-picking, chord melody, single note playing, improvisation, fancy strums and other techniques that are useful for any musical style. Aaron, Brad and Kailin all have their own approach to the ukulele which combine to create an entertaining and interesting workshop that will give you fuel for the ukulele soul!

And later that night, join BAS as they integrate the ukulele into their arsenal of string bass, guitar, violin, marimba, banjo and vocals. You can expect to hear tropical melodies, hot jazz, ragtime, bluegrass and more from this dynamic musical group. Their deep respect for tradition, passion for innovation and intriguing instrumentation creates a remarkable and memorable listening experience. The music is modern and accessible, subtle yet virtuosic and serious yet light hearted.

All of this combines to create the unique musical experience that is Boulder Acoustic Society.
