About Me
- Shelley Rickey
Born & Raised in Mississippi
Residing in The Netherlands
I'm one half of the duo, The Uke Box together with Marko van der Horst. I sing, play the Singing Saw, Ukulele and i'm a bad ass on the Washtub Bass. We perform internationally, host 'The Ukulele Jamboree' in Rotterdam and are the founders of 'The Big Damn Ukulele Band'. Further we run 'The Jumping Flea Market' together, a little shop specializing in Mostly Musical Wonders & Curiosities.
www.jumpingfleamarket.nl Music is also the greatest inspiration for my other art & craft passions such as Cigarbox Instrument Construction, Graphic Design, Painting and All-Round Tinkering.
This blog is my little showroom where i display my work and present various projects with personal items of interest thrown in between. I hope you enjoy your visit. If you like what you are reading, seeing and/or hearing here and are interested in employing my talents or just have something to share, i would love to hear from you.

When I heard you sing on a previous post, I thought, this gal has one hell of a voice. So I decided to Google you this evening and was pleased (but not surprised) to see that you have quite a following. I'm always extra happy when someone from our neck of the woods makes good!!!
Hey Kittie,
How you doin' gal?
Thanks for the googlin'! : )
Yes, i reckon i'm doing pretty good.
I'm doing what i love and i'm not quite starving.
Hope to play some in the states next year.
Wouldn't be great to meet up?!
Where are you located exactly?
Awww, I hope I can make it to the Jamboree. I just realize that particular weekend is one of the most crammed of the year. But hey, I'm dropping my ukes by this Thursday, so see ya soon!

Sending kisses...

Thanks to your lovely design I picked up the flyer from the library and had to come to the Jamboree. I really enjoyed the lovely event and I was quite impressed by Yan Yalego. Thanks and keep the good things going in Rotterdam.
