Bill Cameron - The Uke Dukes

The Uke Dukes are a trio of “mature” age blokes who love to play a variety of songs with sing-a-long classics being their speciality.
They play at most venues in the Bribie and surrounding hinterland areas and recently ran “Learn to Play Ukulele for Beginners” workshops at the Kilcoy Wood Wine and Art Festival – in all, 37 students attended and most were able to strum a tune on completion of two sessions.
The Trio was formed in 2008 with the express purpose of promoting the enjoyment of music and to encourage the playing of Ukuleles for all age groups.
Playing the Ukulele is fun – learning to play is also fun!!

The Uke Dukes will be holding two workshops during the festival.
