Phil is a familiar face at ukulele festivals all over the UK and around the world and is the author of the popular books "How Music Works On The Ukulele" and "How Songs Work On The Ukulele". He has also composed music for the LCM ukulele exams. As well as the uke, he also plays 5 string banjo, tenor banjo, lap steel, and guitar.
As a solo performer, you'll find him playing vintage swing, hokum, old-time, country and jug band music (and original songs in those styles), and he has released several albums and EPs, both as a solo act and in collaboration with other artists.

❤❤❤ Would love to know the chording to this!! Masterful!!! My Mom used to sing this to me when I was little ❤️🩹 Thank you so much!!!
There's a link in the description to the free lesson and tab :-)
Very nice!! Would love to hear you sing this, too ❤
I'll see what I can do!
Subscribed! Thanks, Phil!
Cheers!
Great song, Phil! These oldies are the very best and the reason why I started to play ukelele! My Mom knew them all. Many thanks, I’ll be tuning in ❤
Love this. So restful. 👍👍👍.
What an absolute delight! 😊
your repertoire just kills me. fine job, but then, that’s what I’ve come to expect from you. 😊
Cheers HH!
Cute!
I really love these old jazzy tunes. Recommend becoming a patreon. New song every Wednesday with the best teacher.
Thanks!
Another favorite of mine, perfectly performed.
Thank you!
Fabulous set Phil! 👌 Enjoyed every minute! 🎵❤️🎵 See you soon!
Great version Phil. One of my all time faves. Gutted I couldn't make it down there last week.
Cheers Al, would have been good to see you!
another song from my old repertoire that I don’t remember anymore. great version too, Phil. today I’m going to set up my new (cheap) guitar for Nashville tuning and hopefully the new sound for my palette will spur me on to recovering some of what I’ve lost.
@@PhilDoleman Ditto! See you at Shhrewksfest in a few weeks. 🙏
@@Ukuleleal I'm not there this year, I'm down in Bishops Stortford.
@@PhilDoleman Oh no. Must have got my wires crossed. 😥
Hi Phil, great explanation, you made it seem a lot less daunting than I thought which was why I avoided it in the first place! Would you advise using fretboard stickers showing where the notes are? I was thinking of getting some in the hope it would help in learning the notes until I know them and they would give me a visual aid as well as an aural one?
Cheers! They may help, but I think they they can be a bit of a crutch, and might slow you down in the long run. They also force you into an unnatural position, trying to look at the fretboard!
Thanks Phil for the rapid reply, I can see what you mean about looking at the fretboard. Many thanks for your help.
I enjoyed this. A big thank you, Phil.
Bloomin' nora! And just like that, everything becomes easier, albeit a bit strange at first. Wow! Thanks man.
Glad it helped!
Fun little tune. Thx for sharing it. Well done 🎶😊
Love it. ❤️
Thanks!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I love it keep the work up ❤😊
What will hold the weight of the ukulele if not the palm?
Have a look at this video on holding the uke. ua-cam.com/video/nHpL-U3qZ9A/v-deo.html Holding the uke up with the left hand palm will really restrict your ability to play.
I was not expecting a reply since the video is fairly old. Thanks a lot, I'll practice the seesaw technique you mentioned. 🙌
~Thank you Phil...learning slowly & love the blues...& tricks. Love it when you show the uk in a close shot. (68 but will not quit...)
Love it 😀
How can these all be variations of Eb using different finger positions, but they each sound slightly different?
They are all different inversions, which just means the notes are the same, but in a different order (all of these are just combinations of the notes of Eb, G and Bb). They are really useful when it comes to playing chord melody, as our ear tends to pick out the highest note we hear as the most likely melody note.
how cool is this?? Thanks for sharing, well done Sir!
Cheers!
Awesome dude. Can ya tell me what chords? Think i saw an F in there. Lol. I could play along and you could get a 1000 plays
It's a song I teach on my Patreon page, but it's not too tough, basically a jazzy 12 bar in C!
Does that chart come in low g? 😅 Edit: Never mind I can just know that it's an octave lower lol
What fantastic entertainment.
Thanks!
I'm relieved to have found you! I feel encouraged that I can do this with your help. I'm 75 and don't feel it, and I want to strum and sing on my own. Gotta build some callouses now!
You can do it!
I’ve had my ukulele for about a week and trying to figure out strumming patterns was something I was struggling with. Your video definitely helped me to understand how a strumming pattern works! Thanks!
I'm so glad!
Good lesson. Thank you. ~ 🌺
Thanks!
Nicely done, big like. 👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Cheers!
7 years later the Youtoobs algorithm gets around to recommending this to me. I’d try to find it in the online version of the magazine but I’m already up to my nipples in songs I’ll never find time to learn. 🤷🏻♂️
I only posted it this morning!
@@PhilDoleman perhaps their algorithm is more fucked up than I had presumed. 🤷♂️
Cool❤🎶🌷
Fantastic……thanks for sharing
I met George at Evesham UOGB concert very friendly and approachable a great guy
Dear George! ❤
So great to see George. He is SO missed on UOGB 😄
Excellent!
Cheers!
Great fun all round. Phil, have you got the lyrics to the "pet" song? Better still a video too.
Cheers! Not sure which song you mean, but if I've got the lyrics I'll happily send them!
@@PhilDoleman I was trying to be discrete, the song about a pussy.
Oh, that was George and Jeff's band, The Tin Roof Strollers.
What an instrument the Banjo is,such a great sound with the UKE..thanks Phil.
👍👏 Thank you, great stuff.
Thanks!
Fabulous! ❤
😭👏👏👏
Love this! And your smile at the end is the perfect finish😊!
Fun song ! Great performance !
Cheers!
Brilliant!!!
Thanks!
So clear and concise, thanks Phil, the side view just cracked it for me.
George summoning his inner Dylan there.
Ha ha, yes!
So cool!!!
Excellent lesson. Spot on advice. (I had to work out this approach, painstakingly, after being tapped as a soloist for a recent performance of our ukulele group.)
Hi Phil, do you compile the arrangements yourself ?🎅🏻
Yes, sometimes I work from the original sheet music, other times (like this one) by ear.
Excellent teacher! Will revisit after lots of practice... Thank you!
