I just discovered Karma McCartney. She's an LA-based ukulele player who started a band a few years ago that released its first album this summer.
Here's a portion of an interview with a blog called "Radio Free Silver Lake."
"Q. When did you start playing the ukulele?"
"A. I started the playing the ukulele about three years ago. I love it's harp-like sound. It was also fun to play an instrument that many people (in my scene) were not playing. A year after playing the ukulele, I was invited to be a part of Beirut's music video for "Elephant Gun" and he busted out his ukulele. It was such a treat to see him with the same ukulele I had."
You can hear some of her music here:

Has anyone else heard of her?
