THE SPRINGFIELD UKULELE SCENE

In the heart of Illinois, you’ll find the city of Springfield which is steeped in history. Former President Abraham Lincoln called this home between the years of 1837 and 1861, when he relocated to the White House and Springfield is also the location of the legendary president’s tomb. There is also a strong literary tradition in Springfield with many a poet and author such as Vachel Lindsay, Edgar Lee Masters and John Hay heralding from the quaint city. Favourite pastimes of Springfield residents include sports events like Minor League Baseball, Ice hockey and Basketball.

Any Springfield strummers around? Well, the Springfield Uketopians seem to be the frontrunners in this department. Formed in 2012 by Mary Dana Abbott, this group has grown in leaps and bounds. Their repertoire is mainly older material however they do dabble in some modern hits as well. Each member is encouraged to bring new sheet music to every session. This vibrant bunch meets once a month on a Saturday afternoon in the downtown area and all are welcome. Get in contact with the Springfield Uketopians on their Facebook page which is listed below.
