Driffield Ukulele Band
A ukulele band is guaranteed to bring a smile to your face!
Who We Are
In early Spring 2019, a few enthusiastic ukulele players from the Driffield area decided that although playing solo ukulele was good, playing with other like-minded performers was so much better – and a lot of fun.
And so, the Driffield Ukulele Band was born.
What we do
We play a variety of musical genres – pop, folk, country,rock, blues- anything goes! We play at all types of events – parties, charity functions, fetes and festivals, concerts, pub evenings, clubs and institutions, day care centres, residential care homes – if you fancy hearing some lively, fun-filled music then we can help. Take a look at the Future Bookings section below.
2026
Spring has finally arrived and we are adding new songs to our repertoire in preparation for the busy months ahead. We have already played at some care homes around the Driffield area and hope to continue playing at these venues, where we are always very well received. One of the highlights earlier this year was presenting a cheque of the proceeds we collected when playing at the Sewerby House Orangery Concerts in 2025, to the RNLI at Bridlington. We were given a tour of the Lifeboat Station and the Shannon Class Lifeboat, which we all enjoyed and we will be collecting again for the RNLI at the Orangery Concerts we play this Summer.
During the pandemic we made several videos which can be seen on YouTube and we hope to make some new ones this year. Watch this space!
Our calendar is filling up fast and we look forward to adding more bookings, so please contact us if you would like us to come along and play for you.
