'Ukulele, Repertoire
Avery Hill is a staple instructor of the Portland (OR) ‘ukulele community and has instructed at a wide variety of festivals and camps. These include the Menucha Ukulele Band Camp (OR), the Reno Ukulele Festival (NV), the Ashokan Ukulele Weekend (NY), and the Kamloops Ukulele Festival (Canada). More recently, she has maintained a YouTube channel for ukulele tutorials and has begun teaching songwriting, including at the Songwriter Soireé Retreat. Whatever the classroom, Avery strives to educate everyone’s inner musician, to elevate their self-knowledge and confidence, and to enchant them with insight, presence, and a handful of good jokes. Avery is also a performing singer-songwriter and storyteller. Her latest album, The One Who Remembers (2024), explores the everyday moments and objects that open a portal through time, linking the past, present, and future.
