Ukebox Mash-up | Ukebox | TEDxLiverpool

Enjoy Ukebox's original spin on some well known songs!
Expect the unexpected from this eclectic group who take the ukulele to new frontiers. This ensemble of 5 draws on the flawless tonal qualities of the Ukulele with a completely unique sound of their own. Along with some questionable oddities thrown in for good measure, the mixture of strong harmonies and strapping bass lines prove an aural and visual pleasure of original material not to be missed!

All the guys are great, but that bass player always makes me smile. He' s got a bass players groove.

[@socram70nz]

Saw them live on a cruise. Fantastic show and really nice guys too.

[@r.c.vincent6063]

I loved it. They all sounded great. The bass player was just having a grand old time. I like his moves. Very cool and a great player. They were all great. I would pay to seem them live. Come to America!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Jacko1934]

[@saraleon908]

Got a chance to see them last year... lots of fun!

[@nancyb.2951]

So cool. I can't understand why all the audience members heads are completely still and not bopping to the music!

[@drvogel1]

[@mikeobrien1649]

Love the first song! What is the title/author of that song?!?

[@DonaldDork]

🤔 Do I hear the one song from the cantina scene?

[@odontomatix]

The kazookulele is a great idea!

[@samuelzuniga875]

Cual es el nombre de la segunda canción what is the name of the song number two

[@Mr_Timn]

What was the 1st Songs name? I like it but don't reconise it

[@tardigrade9493]

song's name is "mean boy blues"

[@bebsmalicay2984]

May I know the title of the their second song pls. I love the way the play ukulele specially the bass. Awesome guys!

[@yulianas3163]

bebs malicay the name of the second is crazy in love-beyonce

[@detailedinfinity]

I agree that the bass adds depth and expands the sound. Wonder if a drum kit would be useful :))))

[@nickiemcnichols5397]

detailedinfinity ugh no way, the best ukulele groups don't use drums

[@valvenator]

I could see some percussion maybe but no, NO drums. I watched a bluegrass band some years ago where the stand up bass was carrying more than half the rhythm and you wouldn't miss the drums at all. I think between the bass and banjolele these guys have the bases covered.

[@marlysthoreen4363]

These guys remind me of the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain (minus the women). They are a lot of fun. The ukulele can be as easy or hard to play as you want, depending on the level of musicianship you're going for, and these guys are pretty doggone good. Love the kazoo (:-)

[@alexandrazhuravlev9317]

Beginning of first song sound like in Star Wars in the cantina the song they played

[@grace_in_137]

Great performance! Could you let me know the name of the first song?

[@CombatByrd]

It's called "Time" and it's an original by Ukebox.

[@vmawv]

Like what is this? :D I DIDN'T KNOW THIS OR THEY EXISTED??? :D It's so ...i'm so drawn to their music!

[@dingodile8008]

What´s the name of the first song? It sounds so familiar but I forgot the name and it´s sounds so good

[@min-yh9zu]

[@matzam2807]

They’re like The Beatles! (For them position)

[@ezequielamaya9759]

[@shanqin7023]

[@connorhouston9089]

These are fantastic! However, the vocals are distorting in the last song...not good TEdx!

[@HelloWorld-tn1tl]

[@casaMariaPT]

The bass player is "so" in the pocket.

[@fellsantfernandoargentin2072]

The group some times sounds like Beatles... but... much better!

[@oollo2001]

they are good but chill

[@Chad01234]

19 Mongolian throat singers gave this fine performance a thumbs down.

[@matthewgerick5559]

Dude second from the right needs some vocal lessons, other than that these guys are pretty toight

[@ScrewyLewy53]

Very cool to bad they look like someone cloned Kevin Spacy

[@clarejames5558]

ukagaylee uh huh huhhuh

[@tardigrade9493]

why such a mean song? whatever happened to love songs? don't young men !ove young women anymore? sad.

[@slimrythmman7066]

i can do better.

[@ramonpascual155]

Childish culture, these days...

[@Stig4997]

Ramón Diez de Rivera What's childish about this?

[@_IVXX]

Steve W cause It's so small. I guess most see it as a child's introduction to music most don't think of it as a "real" instrument, whichbis sad. If any player takes the tine to learn more than just the basic major and minor chords, like their 6ths, 7ths, and 8ths it can be a beautiful instrument.

[@GaryFosterThrive]

True and if size was the case then the violin players may have been called childish too? :)

[@tardigrade9493]

steve w. childish because men LOVE women and don't go on about getting rid of them like a twelve year old boy. that's all that's childish about them.
