Phil Doleman - Invidious

Phil Doleman

Phil is a familiar face at ukulele festivals all over the UK and around the world and is the author of the popular books "How Music Works On The Ukulele" and "How Songs Work On The Ukulele". He has also composed music for the LCM ukulele exams. As well as the uke, he also plays 5 string banjo, tenor banjo, lap steel, and guitar.

As a solo performer, you'll find him playing vintage swing, hokum, old-time, country and jug band music (and original songs in those styles), and he has released several albums and EPs, both as a solo act and in collaboration with other artists.
