Booked gig - Deal Visually Impaired Group 19th Sept 18

Sunshine Ukes final performance for Deal Visually Impaired Group at St Andrews Church Hall. (19th Sept 18)

We'd like to thank the group for booking us over the years and for their hospitality.  It was always a pleasure to  entertain them.

Sunshine Ukes decision to disband the group - September 2018

After six years of playing gigs Sunshine Ukes have decided to disband.  All confirmed bookings for the remainder of this year will be honoured, but no further bookings can be made by the group.

During the six years the group have entertained at a variety of places including care homes, school fetes, private birthday parties, picnics, Deal Carnival, local festivals including Blean, Sandwich, Rye, Faversham, Smugglers pop up, Crabble Mill Beer festival, Deal Maritime and Broadstairs Folk Week.  We have played  at several local folk clubs, on a steam tug, at Eurotunnel passenger terminal, at the Astor Theatre, in Tides Leisure Centre and even traveled as far as Charlton Athletic Stadium to celebrate an 80th birthday. 

We have often been seen busking and would like to thank the public for their generosity in helping us to raise a total of £2520.00, which has been given to local charities.  Our thanks also go to our supporters and anyone who has given us a booking.

Although the band has finished, several members remain part of Landmark Ukulele Group.  This group meets at the Landmark Centre in Deal every Friday from 10 - 12 and anyone wishing to play the ukulele is very welcome.
