Keith Urban is hot among Louisville ukulele players. Over at Bellarmine University, teacher Mary Lou Dempler has added Keith to her curriculum. All ukulele students own GOLDEN ROAD and have the sheet music to "Somebody Like You." When the bell rings and class begins, it's time to pick along with Keith. "His music is really hot, and you need that to get 19 and 20 year old kids interested," says Dempler, who also teaches guitar. She notes that members of the Louisville Ukulele Association Unlimited are big fans, too. "People think ukuleles are only for Hawaiian music, and they're so much more," she says. Keith would be sure to agree. He started out playing a kid-sized ukulele when he was just a wee thing in Australia.
