Description

This week I'm speaking to the brains behind the excellent All For Uke website/YouTube channel: Kevin Presbrey.Kevin has been a recording artist - both as part of a band, and solo - since the early 2000s, and his music has appeared in hit TV shows on MTV, VH1 and more. He's also shared a stage with the Doobie Brothers and members of the band Train, as well as writing some terrific songs in the course of his long and illustrious career.In this interview we talk about how a tongue-in-cheek video he posted called "The Prettiest Ukulele Song In The World" led to him becoming a full-time YouTube teacher. We also talk about how fatherhood has changed our perspective on work and music.If you have any thoughts, comments or guest suggestions for the show please send me a message to UkeTeacher@GrabYourUke.com---Ukulele Tales is sponsored by Kala Brand Music!
