Hi DUGs,
A music phenomenon has hit the UK, starting in Edinburgh this weekend.
If you've watched TV or listened to the radio over the last few days, you can't fail to have missed it.
After three nights of the highest-attended stadium shows in Scottish history, this week we're all going to join the Swifties!
How well a song can be performed on the ukulele can often be indicated by the number of YouTube tutorials, play-alongs, and covers.
Look up Shake it Off Ukulele, and you will find dozens. Because, as well as being a catchy song, it is very, very easy to play.
You hardly need tutorials. Just play Am, C, G, G, with a D D-U strumming pattern throughout Taylor Swift's Shake it Off.
Just in case you're worried about reaching those high notes, here is a play-along, in the same key, but a lower octave:

Now that we are no longer using printed song sheets at our meetings, all new songs will be put on the website, rather than attached to these emails. If you want to practice any of our songs, can view/download all our songs here: Our Songs
