Ukulele Noir
Cabaret-Style/Ukulele
Biography
A Somerville resident, Craig Robertson, 59, has not only played the ukulele for
seven years, he also hosts a gaggle of uke musicians at monthly ''Ukulele Noir" nights
in local clubs. ''Noir" audiences have come to expect all kinds of music
— Tin Pan Alley, classical, and swing. Since the first ''Noir" in 2004,
Robertson has found a core of 12 players whom he rotates among special guests
in 20-minute, cabaret-style sets.
Quotes
- “Good show, all around. Of course that guy Russo is a show-stealer. I
enjoyed the theater of it, the outfits, the planning that went into it,
and that edge of weirdness.”—David Fishken
