Folk Uke is an eclectic acoustic folk duo comprised of Cathy Guthrie and Amy Nelson featuring perfectly melded harmonies and sharp, often biting wit
Of our infamous families, the two of us had been the musical holdouts until we gave into the force and began writing and playing music together. Armed with a ukulele and a guitar, we penned songs such as ‘S#@t Makes the Flowers Grow’, ‘Knock Me Up’, and ‘Motherf*#@#r Got F~#@*d Up’ and we thought, “What a crime it would be to keep these national treasures to ourselves. How can we
keep silent when we are the voice of a nation?”
You may not hear us on the radio, since our songs have been described as “inappropriate”, “off-color”, “not ready for mainstream” and “NSFW”(Not Safe For Work).
Our debut EP, 'Folk Uke', is self-titled, as are we. It was produced by Abe Guthrie and ourselves. "Family values" would be the common chord in this unprecedented collection of songs, since we let our Dads, Willie Nelson and Arlo Guthrie, take the solos and chime in when they were compelled to do so. It was the least we could do for our executive producers. It made them feel good and that made us feel good; so we took the chance that it would make thousands of people feel good and we printed thousands of copies. We sure hope you'll buy one, or ten, or even twenty... Cathy Guthrie and Amy Nelson
