Mass Appeal Ukuleles is presented with the support of NAMM Foundation, Alfred Music, Kala, and Making Music Magazine.
Leading the Make Music LA Ukulele Mass Appeal event is Brit Rodriguez. Known for her soulful, smoky voice that beautifully contrasts with the bright, colorful sound of her ukulele. As a musician, she is renowned for her lyrical content and melodic prowess. As a performer, audiences are captivated by her unique sense of humor and down to Earth personality.
Influenced by late fifties R&B and nineties dance music, Brit is a hybrid of the raw, youthful energy of today and the great soul and folk divas of the past. She also runs one of the top 100 ukulele blogs, called Ukulele Gal. In her spare time, she runs a music program at the Ronald McDonald House in Los Angeles. She is the founder of Team Ukulele, which is the charity that supplies instruments and workshops to facilities in Southern California. Brit is sponsored by Godin Guitars, Guitarras Manuel Rodriguez & Sons, Boulder Creek Guitars, and Aquila Strings.
