Dublin Ukulele Collective
16th March
The Dublin Ukulele Collective (DUC) is a thirty-five plus piece ukulele harmony band with a high feel-good-factor and watching them perform, the fun is obvious. Members range in age up to 70+ and they perform a diverse repertoire of songs which reflects their age span.
Within are a seriously talented range of Dublin musicians including; experienced choir harmonisers, sexy middle-aged rockers and electric teenage funksters.
Expect upbeat, fun and rhythmic songs with loads of harmonies and a little nostalgia including songs from; Elbow, Cold Play, Radiohead, Talking Heads, Amy Winehouse, Erazure, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Jason Mraz and more. DUC is very much an audience join-in band.
Formed in 2015, DUC have performed at summer festivals, e.g. Electric Picnic, Longitude, Castlepalooza, Ukulele Hooley; Arts festivals, e.g. Spraoi (Waterford), Carlow Arts Festival, Boyle Arts Festival, Dublin Dance Festival; corporate events, and numerous Charity and fund raising events.
