Aloha! We’re glad you stopped by to find out more about the Las Cruces Ukes. We are located in beautiful southern New Mexico and welcome you to join us at our weekly Thursday night practices or attend our annual Las Cruces UkeFest in May.

Join us for our free holiday concert on Thursday, December 17, at 7 p.m. at Las Cruces Village in the Social Center’s downstairs auditorium (3011 Buena Vida Circle, Las Cruces). We will be happy to accept donations to the international nonprofit, the Ukulele Kids Club, during this concert. They provide ukuleles to kids that are in the hospital long-term while music therapists teach them to play.1

I love the ukulele. It’s got a beautiful, melodic tone to it. There’s something innocent and romantic, and it’s just a grand instrument to play.

Bill Gates recently picked up the ukulele. And Warren Buffett is a huge ukulele fan. I even got to strum a few chords with Francis Ford Coppola. It blows my mind that these people, who have everything in the world they could want, have picked up the ukulele and found a little bit of joy.
