When read this song title I hear Céline Dion’s voice in my head. Unfortunately or otherwise I did not sing that song today, rather I chose Irving Berlin’s 1921 tune which was swung so swingingly by Ella Fitzgerald in 1958. I dedicate this performance to the memory of Ella, who singing has shaped so much […]

I am just so giddy to share this today. Like many of us uke enthusiasts all over the world, I have loved Ukulelezaza for years. I have spent so many hours watching and rewatching his videos online in order to learn his beautiful arrangements of old jazz tunes — and now our pixels and sound […]

I love Yuming. All of the Japanese songs I have learned (there are three) are from Studio Ghibli movies and all of them were written and performed by Yumi Arai/Matsutoya. She is such an inspiring songwriter with an amazing career and body of work. This tune is one of my favorites 💕 I already recorded […]

Laisse Tomber les Filles. Hope you enjoy this French song. I love France Gall—her voice is so cool—and sort of inadvertently did my best impression of her 1960s teenager voice.

This performance is based on Guido Heistek’s arrangement that I found on Youtube a few years back. If you want tabs, please head on over to my Patreon ((( http://www.patreon.com/sageharrington ))) where you can access all the tabs I have ever shared which to be honest is just under a handful at this point, but […]

Moon River – that beautiful song sung by Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Written by Henry Mancini. Apparently this song almost didn’t make it into the movie! Played on my old Regal tenor guitar, this instrument makes me work real hard. I recorded this for my aunt Mary who is retiring. Wish I could […]

What is happening in my country right now is so intense. I am not quite sure what to say, just that a friend of mine put it really well when she said that incidents of white racist violence cannot be compared to acts of Black protest. I’ve been listening to the House impeachment hearings most […]

Here is a bit of a look back to some of the videos—especially of the early jazz variety—I made in 2020. Plus, there are two performances hidden in there that I recorded in mid-2019 that nooooooo one has seen until now. Look out for Al Schackman in those two numbers. He’s a guitarist that played […]

What do you do in the wintery depths of a global pandemic? Well, propose a creative collaboration with a perfect stranger living over 5000 miles away across a vast and endless ocean! This is the power of the internet and of course, the magnetizing, community-building power of the ukulele and of the music of the […]

I am so excited to finally be offering ukulele tabs through my Patreon page. This video is meant to serve as a visual (and audio of course) learning aid. If you closely watch where my fingers go you can totally learn the tune just from this free video! But if seeing the tabs would be […]
