Up On the Roof (Drifters cover), Austin Ukulele Society

A virtual group video of the featured song from our August 2023 online meeting AND our in-person performance from back in 2018, a wonderful hit from the early 1960's made famous by The Drifters: "Up on the Roof." We had a terrific time revisiting this popular and fun song!
Many, many thanks to Paul Butler for his audio mixing skills, to Marty Porter for editing the video clips and producing the final video, and to Jen Richardson for skillfully coordinating communications with all the participants!
Huge thanks and congratulations to everyone around the globe who participated: Shelly Benjamin, Susan Burke, Linda Christensen, Jay Clement, Gary Dills, Rick Entrikin, Vicalely, Ina Ferrara, Pauline & Vince Forbes, Shel Fung, Bob Guz, Sherry Hall, Ernie Halls, Betsy Halvorsen, Barb Halvorsen, Gail Johnson, Sandy Johnson, Arlene Krassner, Steve & Sheila Leigh, Andrew Matlaga, Irene Messina, Ann & Mark Mitchell, Jean Pollack, Sabine Pütz, Al Saloha, Bev and Scott Veals, and Holly Weir.
