Waste of Aces

Waste of Aces is a Los Angeles-based pop/folk group that features use of the ukulele as the main instrument instead of guitar. They began as a group of three friends goofing off in a 30-foot yacht with ukuleles and a tape recorder, and have released 3 albums (the latest CD was released in April 2006). The song styles vary somewhat - from radio pop rock to a twist on the old fashioned jazzy dixieland parlor songs. They have performed, among other locations, at several ukulele festivals across the United States.
