  • At our January 9, 2020 meeting we kicked off the new year (the Austin Ukulele Society's 10th year!) with an upbeat and infectious song. We had a blast learning to play and sing Culture Club's 1983 chart-topper, "Karma Chameleon."

    I wondered how you were going to replace the harmonica intro...NEVER expected it to be the U-Bass! Nice work Aaron Lewis! As another U-Bass player I’m going to have to figure out what you were playing during the rest of the song. Can’t wait to see what February brings!

    What strum pattern are they playing?

      @BobGuz Před 4 lety +1

      Thanks! It's essentially two slight variations of the same basic strum pattern. In the verses it's D-DU-UD and in the choruses and bridge it's D-DU-UDU.
