Driffield Ukulele Band

A ukulele band is guaranteed to bring a smile to your face! 

Who We Are

In early Spring 2019, a few enthusiastic ukulele players from the Driffield area decided that although playing solo ukulele was good, playing with other like-minded performers was so much better – and a lot of fun.

And so, the Driffield Ukulele Band was born.

What we do

We play a variety of musical genres – pop, folk, country,rock, blues- anything goes! We play at all types of events – parties, charity functions, fetes and festivals, concerts, pub evenings, clubs and institutions, day care centres, residential care homes – if you fancy hearing some lively, fun-filled music then we can help. Take a look at the Future Bookings section below.

2026

In 2025 we played at 17 events. Some, like festivals, fairs and concerts were open to the public, so a big thank you to all who came along to hear and support us. We really enjoyed taking our music to the various care homes and day care centres in our area, where we are always very well received and we will be continuing to play at these venues in 2026.

We are busy preparing some new songs to add to our repertoire. We have dates booked on our calendar already and look forward to adding more, so please contact us if you would like to make a booking. We also hope to be making some new videos to add to the ones we made during the pandemic. Watch this space!
