  • Sammy Turton is a Denmark-based British ukulele player. He teaches out of a studio in Copenhagen and is a top-notch social media era virtuoso who would often rather create soundscapes than shred. In this conversation we covered teaching, Brexit, performing solo ukulele for the first time, and his search for the perfect (felt) thumbpick.

  • A conversation with Grammy-winning compilation contributor, Keoki Kahumoku, about the school of hard knocks, teaching, and bringing joy to folks with Hawaiian music.

    Keoki is the founder of the Center For Hawaiian Music Studies and perpetuated the teaching of Hawaiian music for many years at the Kahumoku ʻOhana Music & Lifestyle Workshop. He's a farmer, pig hunter, teacher, and musician with a feel for authentic Hawaiian music that is second to none.
