This week I'm chatting with Will Grove-White, formerly of the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain. Will joined the Ukes when he was just a teenager and spent well over half of his life with the band - so why did he decide to step away?
We also discuss:
And lots, lots more.
There's also an extra 5 minutes of chat with Will about David Bowie's history with the ukulele, the book that he wrote, and why he probably won't be writing another one! It's available only on my Patreon page - sign up today and help support the podcast!
