Ukuleles are definitely not just for playing at tropical, relaxed locales anymore. Sales of the instruments continue to climb for several reasons. “We are still seeing growth; sales are up 19 percent,” Amahi Ukuleles founder, Michael Schear, told the Music & Sound Retailer. “We believe this is driven by the educational sector and ukulele enthusiasts. We are seeing more and more orders for classic sets of ukuleles. Additionally, we have seen a rise in the popularity of ukulele circles and festivals. Many of our most successful dealers are those that are offering free clinics and other in-store events.”
