Absolutely THE BEST band for original novelty music! The group consists of Dirje Smith, John Smith and David Hendley ... aliases Dirje Faye Wahoo, JB Wahoo and Hambone.
When classical cellist Dirje Faye put down her cello and picked up a ukulele and started writing
old timey-sounding novelty songs, Hambone jumped in with his repertoire of old songs, and JB
was a natural with his
huckster-salesman routine, honed from years of performing with an old time
medicine show.
They were the "darlings" of the 2010 Lone Star Uke Fest and even wrote our festival theme song. This year they have a bigger role in the festival and will be teaching workshops too.
