Let's Have Some Fun with the

“COMMUNITY UKESTERS’

Over a decade ago when experts told us what we all knew—music is good for us and singing is fun, a ukulele festival, UKEFEST VA, was held at the Cultural Arts Center in Glen Allen.

Overnight the ukulele became cool, and word spread that the uke was fun and easy to play. Thus began the Ukesters with a few folks humming and strumming. Today the group has mushroomed to a boisterous band of 20-plus. Mostly senior citizens with bold baritones, lovely choral voices, and a few warbling women complete the sound of the Old Standards, Country, Gospel, Doo Wop, and Rock & Roll. To amplify the three-chord strummers are a few very accomplished musicians on guitar and bass. Our Music Director is Bob Wadsworth. When the Ukesters perform they are hoping for an enthusiastic audience who also knows—music is good for us and singing is fun.
