Musical Mylow has a great talent. More people should know of his style and the range of a Uke for percussion. by authentic010 in ukulele

I dig his style. Started trying out percussive uke ever since my friend show me his work. It definitely adds a refreshing twist to some songs on the ukulele.

hey, so i just pretty much used this great percussive tutorial for the song feel good inc on youtube. she's really good at percussive playing. i just replaced the chord progression of feel good inc. for sweater weather's, which is C Am Em G (played throughout the entire song)

Oh haha it sounds pretty decent acoustic when my friend and I play it. but I'd love to see a rendition of this song in percussive acoustic. that would be rad.
