Valentine’s Day in upon us once more. Flowers and chocolates are literally flying off the shelves and there are near riots at card shops. This may be a bit of an overstatement but Valentine's Day remains a very favorite holiday in the U.S. … so for this week selections, we’ll focus on all things “amor.”
The holiday first became associated with romantic love in the 14th century in England, and, by the 18th century, the practice of expressing love to one’s partner included the presentation of flowers, confectionery items and sending heart shaped cards. As our valentine to you, we’ll share songs of love from a more recent era … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.

The past month in much of the country has been a study in contrast as far as the weather is concerned. We have been unseasonably warm alternating with bone chilling cold temperatures with wind chills way below zero ... the perfect time to feature our 50th state’s instrument, the ukulele (or “jumping flea” as translated from the Hawaiian). This show features the instrument as it fits within an ensemble rather than as a soloist.
The ukulele was developed in the 1880s, and was brought to Hawaii by Portuguese immigrants to the island. It was introduced to the mainland U.S. at the Panama-Pacific International Exposition held in San Francisco in 1917, with live performances by George E. K. Awai and his Royal Hawaiian Quartet. The popularity of the Quartet let to a rash of new music featuring the ukulele from Tin Pan Alley tunesmiths. It was also an icon of the jazz age, and became an accompanying instrument in old-time music. The ukulele has made an amazing comeback in recent years. A friend of mine who runs a music store can't keep them in stock, and one of my banjo students builds wonderful one of a kind instruments and ships them nationwide.
We focus on one of the smallest of the fretted instruments … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.

The term “honky tonk” has two meanings. It can be a tavern or club in the South which is comfortable for the common working man, not unlike a pub in the UK. It also describes the style of music played on the jukebox or by bands which perform on the weekend at those venues.
This week and next, we’ll take a tour through classic and contemporary Honky Tonk artists and music, including Johnny Horton, Hank Snow, George Jones, The Mavericks, and many more. We’re honky tonkin’ … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine!
