One of the events I so look forward to attending at the end of each year is the annual holiday party. It’s THAT time of the year when we dress up in Christmas colors of red and green (which also happen to be the colors of the Italian flag), bring our ukuleles, and get together for warm festivities of food and fun. To support this event, I’m donating my books as raffle prizes.

Boston Festivities
The 10th Ukulele Union of Boston’s (UUOB) Holiday Party is happening in Waltham, Massachusetts on Sunday, December 7th. I’ve reserved two tables of eight, and I’m excited to donate three prizes for the raffle drawing.
- Fun with Uke Festive Edition (8 nursery rhymes, illustrated on 20-pages) – this was same as last year
- Book 1 Pick Pluck Play! (12 original pieces on 48-pages) – full color Staples Edition
- Book 2 Pick Pluck Play! (12 original pieces on 48-pages) – full color Staples Edition

London Festivities
To support my ukulele club’s Holiday Party in London on Friday, 19th December, I’m donating a copy of the first Pick Pluck Play book (the full-color Amazon edition) to the weekly raffle on Tuesday evenings, a total of five copies (4th and 25th November, and on 2nd, 9th, and 16th December.) Sadly, I have commitments in Boston and won’t be able to attend this party.

Pick Pluck Play! – a new ukulele book series
Pick Pluck Play! is the title of my new series of fingerstyle ukulele books, now available on Amazon worldwide. Each book features twelve original solo pieces written for high-G ukulele, along with chord names that work on any ukulele, guitar, or accompanying instrument. This means every piece can also be enjoyed as a duet with someone playing the chords.
You’ll find all the ukulele chord diagrams conveniently collected in a table at the back of the book. My goal is to publish one new book each month.
