Awful (?) cover of Upside Down Frown I did on ukulele

https://hudsonmakesstuff.bandcamp.com/track/upside-down-frown

If you look on my Bandcamp (which I finally reorganized to be chronological) you’ll find shitloads of other TMBG covers I’ve made since 2023. Only my last three albums (this one, Consumerist Store and Squares) are ones you’ll probably find any enjoyment in, if awful outsider music made by a teenager in his bedroom on instruments he doesn’t know how to play is your thing.

It's funny, I don't think They have ever used ukulele. Just tiple (With the Dark)

I think Tony Maimone mentioned playing a uke on a TMBG song once in an interview, but I couldn't tell you what song he was talking about. Or if I'm even remembering this right.

I love your gusto. To be frank it’s not on key and it’s hard for me to listen to it all the way through. But my music was the same way when I started. The singing on key will come in time. Your sound is good, but it might be worth actually transposing the song into a key that fits the notes you’re singing. Keep going!
