Hello all!
Hard to believe that we're in the final quarter of 2025!
Bright spots so far - getting to go to Bernadette "Plazi" Plazola's Strum in the Desert Festival, hanging out at the Orange County Ukulele Festival, getting to play the final Dapper Day Expo at the Disneyland Hotel with Big Butter, and teaching for the first time at the Centrum Foundation's Ukulele Festival in May up in Port Townsend, WA.
In June I taught for Starlight Ukes' UkeWest Online Festival, and started the annual series of dates with Holy Crow Jazz Band at Knott's Berry Farm.
In mid-July I went to the Midwest Ukulele and Harmonica Camp in Toledo, OH for the first time and had a great time teaching U-bass, and got to return again to Port Townsend for Centrum's Acoustic Blues Festival.
September brought the annual Los Angeles Ukulele Festival where I backed up my pal Bernadette Mata and in October I got to return to the fantastic Reno Ukulele Festival, and once again played for the Anaheim Fall Festival with the Big Butter Jazz Band.
For Q4, I've got 3 duo dates in November at the Exhibition Room in Long Beach, and December is still filling out.
We'll see what else pops up for the holidays...
