Workshop descriptions 

Ben (Country Boy) Collier 

Ben Collier has been performing  with the Nukes for years  ( 2008 -  forever ) and has a wonderful command of the ukulele. Like a lot of famous musicians he is understated and clever as well as approachable with a gentle sense of humour and loads of patience
He is going to share some of this knowledge with us using some of The Nukes latest material from their CD just released.
It will be a mix of Hootenany/  Woodhill Forest Blues and more....
