- Billie Feather is an artist in residence and pediatric music teacher at Duke University Hospital in Durham, North Carolina. In this video she demonstrates an easy method for kids or mentally challenged adults to easily play the banjo ukulele. She tunes the Deering Goodtime banjo ukulele to a non standard tuning - open G tuning (something that would be familiar to 5-string banjo players). The tuning she uses is D,G,B,D. This allows players to strum their first chord without having to fret any of the strings. Watch the video to learn more!

As a disabled person who actually lives close to Duke Hospital - I deeply appreciate the effort to bring music to kids and mentally disabled patients. Music has changed my life, and I love her efforts to change other's as well.

Great video, but I did have a question. In the video Billie gave the tuning of GBDG, but in the show more text, it has DGBD. I am assuming the tuning is from 4th string to 1st string. Which is correct? Thanks!
Hello! For the Banjo Uke’s we use GBDG but if you’re using the traditional five string banjo you would use DGBD (with the tiny 5th string tuned to G). Both will work since they both form a G chord. The colored tape remains in the same place. Hank demonstrates this at the end with me when he is tuned in Open G banjo tuning and I’m tuned GBDG Open G uke tuning. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
