Listing Info

from the Dempler Mary Lou web site

Mary Lou fell in love with its gentle harp like sound. In the fall of 1998, she accepted an invitation to attend a Ukulele Seminar at Harvard University in Boston. She is a member of the Ukulele Hall of Fame Museum and the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI). Several books written by Mary Lou, published by Mel Bay Publications Incorporated are: Easy Ukulele Method Book 1, Easy Ukulele Method Book 2, Sacred Music for the Ukulele with play along CD and the Easy Baritone Ukulele Method Book One. The books are designed to enable anyone, regardless of their musical background, to play music in minutes without reading music by using the tablature method. Her love of the ukulele and desire to share the joy of playing music led her to found the Louisville Ukulele Association Unlimited (LUAU).

In an effort to promote a “new ukulele sound” she recorded three albums to showcase the instruments versatility; “Songs from the Heart,” “Unique Ukulele Christmas” and “Praise the Lord.” All three of the CDs are in the Ukulele Hall of Fame Museum along with the “Lou Lou” ukulele made for and named after Mary Lou. Terry Meiners, of WHAS Radio, branded Mary Lou the “Ukulele Goddess” and Mel Bay made her Kentucky’s Ukulele Goddess. She has been featured on Fox News with Berry Bernson, in the Courier Journal Newspaper, Louisville Magazine, Today’s Woman Magazine, Louisville Music News and Leo Magazine. In August 2003, Capitol Records published an article noting her use of country music in ukulele classes, particularly the use of music by Keith Urban. Mary Lou met with Keith Urban several times for photos and to discuss music. She appeared in an HBO documentary film as a musician, teacher, performer and ukulele enthusiast. Mary Lou, a Hohner artist and endorsee, wrote “Learn to Play Ukulele the Lanikai Way.” It was published by Hohner Incorporated/ Lanikai. She teaches workshops and classes all over the country. In Louisville, she teaches guitar and ukulele classes at Bellarmine University and at her private studios. She truly believes, “If our eyes are the windows to our souls, the ukulele is the door to our hearts.” In her heart, she believes the ukulele is the instrument of the Millennium.
