Welcome to The Ukulele Podcast.


Whether you want to hear how James Hill put together his famous arrangement of Billie Jean, or how Jake Shimabukuro played the ukulele for the Queen, it's all in this podcast.


Join me, John Atkins, for long-form uke-centric chats with everyone from Cynthia Lin, Bernadette Teaches Music and Victoria Vox, to Nick Cope, Bakithi Kumalo and Will Grove-White.


There's also stories recorded on-the-go such as my behind-the-scenes account of a local ukulele festival in England, and audio diary of my trip to the NaMM music convention in Los Angeles.


Plus listener contributions about your favourite ukuleles and what they mean to you.

Nick Cope (Nick Cope's Popcast, CBeebies, Candyskins)

Today I'm really excited to be chatting to BBC star Nick Cope, of Nick Cope's Popcast fame! (And so is Percy!)


We discuss:


  • Making the transition from indie pop star to kid’s tv presenter
  • The secret of writing a good song for the whole family to enjoy
  • Perfoming for young children
  • Getting his show on the BBC
  • Growing up with a famous dad
  • How he got started playing music
  • Not being able to remember the notes on a fretboard
  • Adding the ukulele to his songs
  • What guitars and ukuleles he uses
  • A trick for keeping his ukulele in tune while recording
  • Having a song banned by the BBC!


If you have any thoughts, comments or guest suggestions for the show please send me a message to UkeTeacher@GrabYourUke.com
