The Ferocious Fleas ensemble is a unique seven-member group, that plays music from Bach to Sousa, and Queen to Lady Gaga - on ukuleles!
This is not your ordinary strum and sing ukulele group. These four-stringed Hawaiian instruments prove their versatility in varied instrumental and vocal arrangements that will get your toes tapping!
Get To Know Us
The group's name comes from the Hawaiian word 'ukulele' - which means "jumping flea" - and the group's fearless willingness to interpret just about any music genre, including pop, musicals, jazz, movie scores, classical, and classic rock. All numbers are arranged by members of the group.
In 2017 the Fleas were formed, consisting of four tenor Low G ukuleles, two Baritones, and one Bass. Since their formation the Fleas have pleased audiences from Denver to Fort Collins.
The Fleas love to play together and share music with their audiences, as background music or in a concert setting.
You will come out of a Ferocious Fleas concert with a new appreciation for the beautiful music that ukuleles can create!

As a ukulele ensemble, we have had the opportunity to play in some really cool places.
Check out our list below to see some of the venues we've had the pleasure of performing at!

The Fleas playing "Moonlit Winter Road"
"The arrangements for all the songs are great and you all are playing very well on the album. Not to mention, Brian did an incredible job of mixing and mastering. I’d say my two favorite songs are the pink Panther medley, and Cavatina. Remember Me is quite a tearjerker as well. Keep up the good work and I look forward to hearing what’s next from the ferocious fleas."
