I’ve picked up the ukulele in lockdown and it’s a slow process to learn anything that isn’t C, G, Am or F (drummer hands), but I’m getting there and it’s good fun.

I’ve always been inspired by those clever videos where people edit and sync together multiple clips to essentially sing along to their own backing tracks – Matthias Harris’ was the first I saw and it has always stuck with me.

My own fledgling attempt has been to mess around with “Trust Me” by Barenaked Ladies, so from an initial ukulele track (recorded in my bathroom) I’ve evolved the idea as follows. I can see this being the start of something!
