Ukulele Death Squad, an 8-piece band with members spread across Australia, have been hailed as the world’s “most dangerous ukulele band”. Blending ukuleles, vocals, congas, and brass, they deliver a high-octane mix of gypsy jazz, R&B, and folk. Their electrifying live shows have captivated audiences at major festivals like Adelaide Fringe, WOMADelaide, WOMAD (UK), Boomtown (UK), Bardentreffen (Germany), and Rudolstadt (Germany). Their high-energy performances show time and time again the true power and versatility of a four-stringed instrument. If Tarantino ever needed a band to play during a high-body-count shoot-out in a Mexican cantina, Ukulele Death Squad should be his first and only port of call.
