NASHVILLE to 99000
Brown County Ukulele Festival
January 24 and 25, 2020
The fourth annual Brown County Ukulele Festival will take place on January 24 and 25, 2020, at the Brown County Inn in Nashville, Indiana. More than 200 ukulele enthusiasts will gather here from across the nation to enjoy a bundle of activities including concerts, workshops, open mic performances, and jam sessions. Tickets are already sold out but you can still enjoy festivities in the hotel bar.
Mike Hater of Mainland Ukes sponsors this event to attract business to Brown County during the slower, more boring time of year. This family friendly gathering is a great antidote for cabin fever and those after-holiday blues. You can’ t help but smile when you pick up a ukulele.
Hater has described the ukulele crowd as,“ nice, friendly weird, and everybody wants to jam.” The jam sessions are a big attraction for the players. Most folks come for the camaraderie.
If you are not lucky enough to get a ticket, you can still enjoy the ukulele music that will be played in the Brown County Inn’ s bar. That part is free and open to the public. Locals can get a taste of the uke music there. Some have been known to buy ukuleles and have transformed into serious uke enthusiasts after hearing the music there. Visit < browncountyukefest. com > for details. Mainland Ukes is located at 91 W. Washington St. in Nashville. Weedpatch Music Company also has a large selection of ukuleles and is located at 58 E. Main St. next to the courthouse. •
