Put on your red shoes… they’ll be floating in a most peculiar way. “The Ukes deliver Bowie with a darkness and delicacy that gives you goosebumps”— Angie Hart“A new standard of what to expect from this humble instrument"— Steve Kilbey“Masterful ukulele playing … the song selection is inspired” — Ashley Naylor“The best version of Ashes To Ashes you ever heard”— Robert Forster“I was singing along like a lovesick teenager”— Kate Ceberano
