You're invited to a FREE ukulele jam session — perfect for those with a basic grasp of chords. Bass and cajon players who can lay down a groove from a ukulele chord chart are also welcome! Just bring your own instrument and join the fun! Our teacher, Vivek, has been playing the ukulele at the campfire level for about 15 years and ran a club in Pleasanton, California, for the last three years. He enjoy playing as a group without amplification, mixing favorite songs with "project songs" and deep cuts. What to expect:

• Strumming and shouting songs from my Pleasanton Songbook. There’s classic pop/rock (The Beatles, Eagles, ABBA), reggae (IZ, Common Kings), singalong standards (Stand By Me, Wagon Wheel), plus a few modern earworms (Flowers, Feather) and a bunch of Late 90’s. We’ll nail some and murder others. Here’s a link to the songbook and supplement, and to a Spotify playlist.
• Getting to know each other and what we like to play together.
• The room should comfortably hold up to 12 people but there aren’t many tables. Bring a music stand if you have one! And bring the songbook on a device or in print.
