New Slang
The Shins
Hey there folks, this month we are learning the tune New Slang by The Shins. This is a tune that really meant a lot to me back in the day. It’s got a really fun riff section that almost reminds of a cowboy movie soundtrack. I really love this cover by Meadowlark. Something about her voice and the vibe. And if you wanna hear it on the uke check this video from the guys over at Ukulele Site featuring Zach Shimizu.
