Happy Birthday to Uke!
On August 23rd, 1879, the sailing ship Ravenscrag arrived in Honolulu, carrying over 400 Madeiran immigrants and their tiny guitars called machetes ("mah-shettes"). It was the first time such a sound had been heard in the Hawaiian Islands. Within a decade the 'ukulele was the official instrument of Hawai'i.
