4stringboy: Shredding, lack thereof, and innovating a new thumbpick design
Sammy Turton is a Denmark-based British ukulele player. He teaches out of a studio in Copenhagen and is a top-notch social media era virtuoso who would often rather create soundscapes than shred. In this conversation we covered teaching, Brexit, performing solo ukulele for the first time, and his search for the perfect (felt) thumbpick.
Find Sammy on: https://www.4stringboy.com/ and across the social networks as @4stringboy.
