--------------About me---------------
I've been performing and writing for about 2 years now.
I started playing at open mic's at The Mill in Iowa City. David Zollo gave me my first opening acts in the fall of 2007, and I continued to play in venues where I garnered exposure. He then co-produced my album with me during the spring of 2008.
I've been playing all over the state of Iowa, mostly in restaurants, pubs, coffee shops, books stores, drinking establishments, etc...I would like to play for you sometime.

--------------------Reviews--------------------
"First-year UI College of Dentistry student Uker unveils his debut disc "Speaking of Stars," an earnest, organic mix of original folk-rock and ballads co-produced with David Zollo (who adds his dependably gorgeous keys to the project) and engineered by Luke Tweedy at IC's Flat Black Studios. Phrasing and tune constructs often recall early James Taylor."
--Jim Musser, Iowa City Press Citizen
