The Ukes of Hazzard, founded in 2015 by Gary Mullins, emerged from his love for premium entertainment and the unique charm of the ukulele. Gary envisioned a band that blended the whimsical sounds of the ukulele with the classic aesthetic of ‘English country gents.’ Since their inception, they have been captivating audiences with their eclectic mix of hit songs, each reimagined with a distinctive ukulele twist. The band's versatility and ability to tailor their performances to the specific needs of an event make them a standout choice for a wide variety of occasions.
The band's journey began with a remarkable debut performance for Google, setting a high standard for future engagements. Since then, The Ukes of Hazzard have continued to rise in prominence, gracing television screens with appearances on the BBC’s Rogue Traders and participating in promotional campaigns with companies like Gumtree. Their growing portfolio includes regular performances at Butlin’s resorts and a steady stream of bookings for weddings, parties, corporate engagements, racing meets, and vintage-themed events. Each performance showcases their ability to adapt to different settings and audiences, whether providing background ambiance or being the centre of attention.
One of the unique features of The Ukes of Hazzard is their flexible group configuration, ranging from solo acts to duos, trios, and the full quartet. This adaptability allows them to cater to various event sizes and budgets, ensuring that every performance is memorable. The solo performances offer intimate, mobile entertainment, while the duo brings a double dose of ukulele magic.
