Morning Stu I Bryan here in the UK this video is great as I am a big fan of Goege Formby you make it look easy so I will keep on with the practice keep the videos coming best whishes to you and all in the US Bryan
Thanks so much for this! Just got my 1st uke last week and am loving it so far. As an aside, I discovered that George Formy used to live nearby and we went and found his old house on Sunday. It felt like a pilgrimage! I am hooked!
This is a fantastic lesson, thank you Stu. I am learning old-time banjo, and have been roped into playing a fun song in our local 'disABILITY' drama play. I just watched Dom Flemons perform 'In the Jailhouse Now', and my friend who plays uke and banjo pointed out his George Formby style, hence finding myself here. I'm totally hooked on your teaching style. Thank you.
I've been playing the guitar for 18 years. Had a ukulele for 2 but didbt really take it seriously until I was tasked with doing "A Christmas song a day" for Christmas just gone. Anyway. Because of the guitar, I keep pulling off notes with the "down up touch" method. Although the strumming pattern is right, it just doesnt sound correct with that extra pulled off note!! I love that this video is straight to the point, easy to understand and your teaching style is great. I find you easy to understand. Thank you!! You've helped me a lot since first finding your video yesterday. Subbed, too! Thanks again. Tom.
I love this lesson, thanks a lot, Stu! Opened up a new uke world for me. I love to play classical, but this is so much fun.thank you! Greetings from the Netherlands, Alouisa
Yes!!! THANK YOU!!!! This is something I’ve been wanting to learn! You made it seem very simple to break down and learn. I hope that you will teach some more intricate strums like this. Thanks again!
Cheers & thanks for watching :) Hope you'll subscribe for more goodies from Ukulele Zen! I'll be coming to OZ in May of 2020 for a tour of the Sunshine Coast...starting with the sunshine coast ukulele festival starting May 1....
Love and blessings going right back to you… Thanks for being here and for your positive outlook on life...be well & keep playing that peaceful music into the world! Stu
Delighted with this, Stu....had a bit of a breakthrough as a result of this video. Would love to hear more about how to integrate it into other playing. Take care, Casey

@@UkuleleZen Thanks for the reply, I became a patron the other day. I sang your praises on Facebook and it turns out we have mutual friends. I've spent the past two weeks recovering from kidney cancer surgery.... using my time wisely, I thought I would improve skills on the Uke. I have been in this every Wednesday jam for about 20 years, mostly song writers, retired pros and some brave souls who try to keep up.... I brought my son's banjolelee this morning and had several opportunities to use strums and riffs I learned from you this past week. Got a few wows so I'm feeling pretty good. Thank you! I am going to try and make it to your program in Richmond this fall.
Thanks Davida! Play on :) FYI: There are song sheets, tabs and other resources for my TH-cam ukulele lessons at my Patreon Page: www.patreon.com/ukulelezen
Thank you Stu, this is wonderful! I've had a banjouke for two years, and have never been able to figure this out. I've watched a dozen George Formby imitators, and not one of them showed me this much. If I can do this, and learn claw hammer, I'll wear my banjouke out.
Thanks Stu. Another really helpful video. I only wish we would be seeing you with Babik this weekend at the Elmwood Festival Of The Arts. You are missed.
This is fantastic Stu! I've always gleaned something from your videos even as a very new player. The way you break these patterns down makes it very do-able to feel ground is gained quickly. Thank you kindly!

Thanks! I got a banjo uke last yera with the intent of playing bluegrass, but have been interested to learn something about Formby style. Time to watch this again with banjo in hand.
Thanks LJ! Ever try practicing with a timer? Sometimes if I have just 10 minutes to play, I'll put it on...it makes my mind a bit focused to know there is a time limit...the key for me is to keep it relaxed even though I have a time limit :)
Stu that is awesome. I have been working on this very strum so I can play When I’m Cleaning Windows. I know you have gone over the triplet strum before but maybe you can cover it in relation to how George Formby incorporated into the Split Strum as well as how to do his fan strum. All of these elements put together really make his sound stand out. I am currently in the market for a banjolele and think I have narrowed down to the Gold Tone DLX and really want to learn all three of these elements to bring that uke alive!!!!!
Those gold tones are some nice banjo Ukes. For sure, we will apply this to a particular song sometime in the near future. This lesson was intended to be a preparatory primer… Will probably have another one like this before getting into the heavy duty stuff… But rest assured, we will apply this to a song :-)
Such a happy and soulful lesson. I'm more inspired with each bouncy run-through. Thanks master. What is that uke you play.? Spectacular says this trained ear.
Please show us song where we can use this George Formby strum slow I have the strum but am having trouble playing it with even a simple song. Love your site ,you are just
I came here after buying a banjolele in an antique store. I never had or played one before, really an impulse buy. But I do have a banjo. The rhythm is the standard banjo 12312312 roll over 8s that threw me off as a guitarist learning banjo, because you naturally want to go straight 8s or triplets, and this makes you emphasize the offbeats, the ANDs in between.

Hi Stu. I'm Nick from UK and I love this video and also the one on the triple stroke, both of which were used by George Formby as you know. I got my banjolele today and am eager to start but have to fit my bridge first but once I've got over that hurdle, I'm going to start practicing those 2 strokes which you demonstrate brilliantly, if you don't mind me saying so. You also say you will take requests from the comments so, may I make 2 requests please? Both George Formby strums which are up by other people but your explanations/demonstration would be much appreciated I'm sure. The two strokes are his split stroke and the fan stroke. PLEASE, if you're still doing these videos and see this comment, I do hope at some point when you get time, you'll do this. Thank you. :)
Thanks Nick - glad you enjoyed the video. I made a video for the fan stroke here...not necessarily Formby style, but a great technique vid...enjoy: th-cam.com/video/BngzM8s9WYs/w-d-xo.html
Awesome tutorial Zen, simply explained and demonstrated. Even a non player like me could follow it. How about a few of George's solo 'fill in' strums for a future demo please? :)
Thanks Nick! I try to make them easy enough for a beginner to follow, yet with some "meat on the bone" so to speak...more forby tunes someday! I did Leaning on a Lamppost a few months back...
Is it possible to show us a simple song everyone know using the George Formby strum ? I really love your lesson but am having trouble singing and play that strum. Thanks so much for your help

Hey Stu! thank you so so so much for this, i am becoming a great fan of your videos and thanks to those i discovered one of the greatest musician George Formby. I would really love to learn a few songs by formby, not just the strumming styles, can you make videos on that? Also is there a course that you offer that covers exclusively george formby styles? or songs i would love to take it if there is any, if there isnt i am sure you will come up with something, please let me know...
It is not a beginner's strum that's for sure - I think it's probably well within your reach, but it will take some time of slowing it down & making it feel light & fluid in slow motion, then just pick up the speed a bit. Work with on chord for a while to get the groove?
I really want to go this year...there’s a big blessing coming my way in Feb & I had to cancel 👶 However, there’s talk of me being there in the year 2021 and I hope it will line up! Take good care 😊🙏🏻🎶
Perfect! I was just watching a video yesterday of George Harrison playing Ain’t She Sweet, and was wondering how he did that strum. How did you know? 😉
You mean the triplet? I have a few lessons on triplet strums at my TH-cam channel...search for “The Secret to Triplet Strumming”. I’ll make a new one sometime.
dude sweet! My banjolele skills just got better from watching this, this is seriously one awesome way to strum out a banjolele! YEEEE ALO-HAWWWWW
