Ukulele Utopia

A Virtual Learning Experience

Total Life Forever

Blue blood, What remains, Alabaster

It’s fair to say at least one Foals album should have been in my top 50 project. Quite simply, I love this band. They are everything you could want in a bunch of musicians. Technicality, riffs for days, gorgeous harmonies and they are immense live. I first discovered them on itunes weekly free music thing on a Tuesday. I heard the track Balloons and was instantly hooked and have been ever since.

This video is part of a project I’m working on. I’m learning to play my favourite albums on a ukulele. If you enjoyed it why not check out some other classic albums that I arranged like The Strokes, Kings Of Leon or The Libertines
