We are retired senior men learning to play easy folk songs and soft rock from the 70's to the 90's. We were three and now we are nine looking for a dozen to enjoy a couple of hours of singing and playing Ukulele or Guitar. 

Ou motto is 'Mama, don't let your Uke's grow up to be Guitars. 

Its a fun time for two hours, as we learn again, to use both sides of our brains. Drop in for a visit, humm, sing or even learn to play an instrument. We have an extra Ukulele as we play easy two and three chord wonders. 

The Men's Shed Music Group is an external Men's Shed OC activity for learning and playing music and the costs are not financed by the Men's Shed Ottawa Centre.
