ABOUT THE EVENT
We are excited to welcome back Ortega Guitars (https://ortegaguitars.com/en/home) for an evening of entertainment full of performances, insights, inspiration and laughs, featuring four of their incredible artists from the UK and Hungary, Tim and Jake Smithies who perform as Dead Mans Uke, Tom Kontor and Gábor 'Biga' Heincz. Check out their videos below!
This is as much an interactive workshop as it is a gig: this is your chance not only to hear these fantastic musicians but also to talk to them about their sounds, techniques and approaches to music, and get inspiration for your own writing and performing — or even advice on getting started.
Accessible to musicians of all levels, as well as anyone who just wants to hear some great music, this event is also a fantastic opportunity to benefit from the expertise of Ortega's own staff and take advantage of exclusive deals on their TourPlayer guitars and ukuleles. There'll even be some giveaways too!
DEAD MANS UKE
Festival favourites Dead Mans Uke (https://deadmansuke.com/index.html) bring their own brand of fast picking, foot stomping, tale telling blues. The band is made up of father and son duo Tim (https://ortegaguitars.com/en/artists/tim--smithies-a325649.html) & Jake Smithies (https://ortegaguitars.com/en/artists/jake-smithies-a325652.html) who will be showcasing a combination of TourPlayer Ukulele and the Neo ukulele bass.

TOM KONTOR AND GÁBOR 'BIGA' HEINCZ
Tom (https://ortegaguitars.com/en/artists/tom-kontor-a323971.html) and Biga (https://ortegaguitars.com/en/artists/gabor-heincz-a12546.html) hail from Hungary and will be using Ortega's TourPlayers and acoustic basses for an electrifying performance of classic covers featuring looping and vocal harmonies, revealing the versatility of using nylon string guitars within a live setting.
