{Patron-only post}

Aloha, Patrons!  

Just a reminder to enter our Patron Open Mic + Giveaway, and be sure to check out videos from your fellow Patrons!

A warm welcome to the many new Patrons who've just joined us! Please see the bottom of this post for tips on joining our private Facebook group (the best place to get support and ask questions) and other helpful tips.

Our January 2020 song poll winner is "Crazy" by Willie Nelson / made famous by Patsy Cline.  You can find this song on my record, Ukulele Days, and I will teach this arrangement.   

I hope you'll join me for the Live Lesson for "Crazy" on Thursday, January 23 at 5:30PM Pacific Time.  Iʻll post the chord chart and lesson info tomorrow before the lesson.  You can find all Patron events on our Patron Google Calendar.  

Patrons at the $5+ tiers can tune in for the Live Lessons. All Patrons will get access to the recorded lesson next month.  If you'd like to change your pledge and join us for the Live Lesson, click here for help on editing your pledge. 

For tips on getting the most out of a Live Lesson, check out Patron Mark Pierce's Guest Post on the topic!

Thanks to everyone for voting and sharing your song suggestions in our January 2020 Song Poll - you can go back to the January poll to keep commenting and up-voting your song suggestions for next month. 

Look forward to seeing many of you online on Thursday!

About the Song of the Month

For each of our monthly song vote winners, I teach a Live Lesson for $5+ Patrons and post a Patron-only chord chart for $3+ Patrons. I then create a Patron-supported Play-Along to share on YouTube. Here's a playlist of recent Patron-supported Play-Along videos. The Live Lesson will be available for $5+ Patrons for the first month, and all Patrons will get access at the beginning of the following month. Click here to find all available Live Lessons.

Day 29: Crazy - Willie Nelson banjolele cover // #100DaysofUkuleleSongs

Find out more about the story behind this song at http://bit.ly/crazy100days Day 29: Crazy. #100DaysofUkuleleSongs is part of a community creative project called #The100DayProject that encourages artists to practice their process for 100 days. (you should do it too!) I'm committing to 100 days of recording and publishing a video each day of myself playing a song on the ukulele.

How about putting Simon & Garfunkel’s "El Condor Pasa (If I Could)" on February’s Patron Vote? Just a suggestion

I love your banjolele. Could you please let me know what kind is it? I want to have one. Thanks so much.
