I am so excited at the end of September 2023 I joined this ukulele band called the Brain Plasticity Ukulele Collective and have been with them ever since. They are a ncompassing all styles, genres, and levels of ability, Brain Plasticity Ukulele Collective includes members ranging in age from 18-85 and has been performing together live for seven years. Instruments you might hear in the music of the collective include not only ukuleles but also guitar, flute, percussion, harmonica, accordion, mandolin, mandola, bass, piano, and melodica. The group is inspired by the idea that music cuts across diverse cognitive capabilities and resources, including numeracy, language, and space perception. Love, community, enjoyment, and laughter are the heart and soul of their endeavor, furthering the imagination of their collective possibilities and wonderment. By taking chances, trying something new, and sharing in the power of music, the Collective believes that anyone can: “Drop a brain bomb. Fire up the synapses. Rewire some neurons and strum into cognition. Why don’t you pick up a uke? We did.” Everyone is welcome, and all are encouraged to dance along. The Collective has finished recording their second album of original material.
