Today I'm speaking to Aryy - the girl who made headlines around the world last September when she led a ukulele singalong at 30,000 feet for Southwest Airlines!
Unfortunately, this interview took place before that happened, so we don't talk about it at all But we do talk about her awesome music, being a proud representative of the LGBT community, growing up on YouTube (believe it or not, she's been on it even longer than I have!), being a multi-instrumentalist, and her terrific new single, Villain Arc.
Aryy is a great musician and was a lot of fun to chat with, so be sure to subscribe to Ukulele Tales now - available in all the usual podcasty places - so you don't miss it!

Previous Episode
Danny Weinkauf (They Might Be Giants)
Grammy award-winning musician, Danny Weinkauf, has composed music for television, film, children, and - for the last 20+ years - has been the bass player for They Might Be Giants. Not only that, but on their 2002 kids album No he became the first person to write and sing a song on a TMBG record that didn't have the name John.
I caught up with him about a week into the current TMBG world tour, and we spoke about everything from how he started out as a musician, playing and performing with They Might Be Giants, wedding bands, the music of The Simpsons, his solo children's music projects, songwriting on the ukulele, and helping to produce his son's first record. We also learn the secret of the red pants, and find out exactly where they do make balloons!
They Might Be Giants have been one of my all-time favourite bands ever since I was a child, so this was a real thrill for me, and Danny didn't disappoint. If you want to hear more from him I really recommend you check out his latest solo album, Light Up Your Love, released at the beginning of this year, and available now on all streaming services.

Next Episode
Magnus Sjöquist - Swedish U-Bass Supremo!
I met Magnus Sjöquist - Swedish U-Bass Supremo, and fello Kala Brand Artist - at NAMM last year. We didn't get to chat for long but among the topics that did come up were his 15-piece Steely Dan tribute band(!), his thoughts on using the bass as a lead instrument, and duetting the U-Bass with a bassoon back in his native Sweden.
Magnus also talks about how he decided to take up the U-Bass... after reading a review of it in a magazine!
There's also some fall-out from last week's episode that I need to address directly at the start of the show.
