You might never have heard of these guys before, unless you’re a kiwi or have a thing for mini-guitars, but this is a gig not to miss.
Featuring Flight of the Conchords favourite, Bret McKenzie along with a slew of other funny sounding but talented musicians, you’ll love their eclectic style, catchy covers and smooth sounds that will transport you straight to the beaches of the South Pacific….we’re talking about the Wellington International Ukulele Orchestra of course.
Check out some of their work on YouTube, including Randy Newman’s 70’s classic “Short People”.
The orchestra has such a good time on stage that you won’t be able to resist their charm and big smiles…or the occasional sing-along.
