What we’re about
The Ukulele Rebellion has begun! Join us at our various monthly meetings (and other events).
We are an educational group, seeking to teach beginners and beyond to play the ukulele. Our primary songbooks are The Daily Ukulele (the Yellow Book) and The Daily Ukulele Leap Year Edition (the Blue Book) published by Flea Market Music.
We also play some songs from chord/lyric sheets that can be downloaded (see below).
We ask for a $5 donation per meeting to pay for Meetup.com site maintenance and other expenses.
If you can print out your own copies of the "alternate" songs from the Files section of the group (Under "More" above), that would be fabulous! The songs for each meetup that have been requested (both new and old) are in a file with the meetup's date. The whole book is under "Rebellious Songbook." The Xmas songs are under "Rebellious Xmas Songs."
Thanks, and we hope to see you strumming along with us.

See all- Virtual Ukulele Rebellion #99! Fifth Annual Zoom Lu'au!Link visible for attendees
E komo mai! (Welcome!) Let's celebrate summer 2025 with our Fifth Annual Zoom Lu'au! We'll play songs from, about, and related to Hawai'i. Hawaiian language songs, hapa haole songs (English language songs from Hawai'i), and popular songs about Hawai'i are all welcome. Be sure to wear a lei and your favorite Hawaiian shirt, blouse, or mu'umu'u. We'll play music from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm Pacific Daylight Time.
To address some Zoom-bombing at our March 2025 Zoom meetup, I will be looking at and implementing additional security procedures for access to Zoom. The Zoom link will appear on this page when you RSVP. If Zoom asks for a passcode, the passcode is Rebellion. The passcode is case-sensitive.
If you'd like to lead a song, please let me know, either by posting here in the comments or by email, which song(s) you would like to lead. The cut-off time for requesting to lead a song is THE TUESDAY BEFORE THE MEETING (for this meeting, Tuesday July 29), even if you're going to be leading a song from one of the Daily Ukulele books. I'll post a songlist here in advance of our meeting.
IF YOU'D LIKE TO LEAD A SONG USING SHEET MUSIC OR A CHORD CHART THAT ISN'T IN THE HE MELE ALOHA BOOK, THE YELLOW BOOK, THE BLUE BOOK, OR THE BBJ GROOVY SONGBOOK, EMAIL THE DOCUMENT TO ME IN DIGITAL FORMAT IN ADVANCE SO THAT I CAN UPLOAD IT TO DROPBOX AND POST IT ON THE SCREEN FOR OTHERS.
PLEASE NOTE: To accommodate all first song requests, we may not have time to get to all second (or third) song requests. When asking to lead more than one song, please indicate your first and second choices to ensure that, if we can't get to your second request, the song you'd most like to lead is included in that evening's song list. Thank you in advance for your willingness to lead songs and your understanding about how the song list for each meeting is prepared.
