The Eclectic Sing Alongs are somewhat new to the area but they are already providing boundless entertainment by playing the ukulele.
Some players have just a few months of playing the small guitar-like instrument under their belts and others — well, decades. Betty Coker brought the tradition back to life when she came to the Eclectic Public Library in 2010.
