You got me to run over to YouTube to try and find Tiny Bubbles.  Found it, but so overproduced as to be almost unlistenable.  Did find Iz's cover of Over the Rainbow with a more traditional ukulele accompaniment.  Enjoy!

I wasn't sure what to expect, but it was surprisingly sweet.

Didn't even know they could sound like that.  The lower mic must have some serious reverb.

That's a great rendition! This one's not as good but still interesting.

I don't know. That's pretty phenomenal. What an amazing instrument (and artist).

If you liked that you should check out some of her other songs. She does some amazing covers. My favorite of hers may be her version of Voodoo Child. I've spent some of my social distancing time exploring instruments and musical styles unfamiliar to me. It has paid off most enjoyably.
