SCHNELLES BELLES indeed! The Ukulele Bizarro III was an amazing night! Many made the trek to the remote but cozy Centre St-Ambroise and were welcomed in for an evening of kitschy, melodic and quirky fun.The night started out with Miss Amy Dynamite with her frost-inspired solo act...
Then came MEB accompanied by handsome cowboy Jacques who kept to the four-string theme on his acoustic bass...Krista Muir took to the stage with her baritone and performed new songs from her upcoming album "Between Atoms."
Then came the raffle! The Aquatic Pack, The Kitchen Pack, and The Music Pack. And the much coveted grand prize - Krista's autographed baritone ukulele (her first! a Hilo she used to record "Leave Alight" and tour Europe with...). All the winners were pleased as punch. Especially Linda who won the uke...lucky gal!
Krista was ecstatic that Priscilla, her uke student, performed her first ever gig that night and stole the show! Here they are performing an original number the "Belles of the Del" before the "Schnelles Belles" 6-piece ukulele ensemble played a selection of holiday tunes.
Then came the featured group of the night...The brand new Schnelles Belles ukulele ensemble. Here they are performing their version of "Blue Christmas," (with a beautiful solo by Marie-Eve) "Quand Le Soleil Dit Bonjour," and "Merry Christmas Everybody."
Happy holidays and see you at the next Ukulele Bizarro!
This is great! I'm a Montreal uke player. I wanna join!
