About Ukester Brown
I'm a strummer who likes to sing. Many of the songs I do have familiar choruses, but I try to dig up the verses we may not know. On my website listed above you can print out lead sheets for many of the songs that I do... Have fun with them!
A lot of people ask me about the ukuleles I play in most of my videos. They are custom built Kepasa Josephine soprano models. One is Koa and the other is a Spruce Top with Indian Rosewood body. http://kepasaukulele.com/ - Check out Kevin's ukuleles. I love both of mine!
