About Me

LEXOTICA is a ukulele driven funky jazz, lounge group.
NOTE: The Songs on this page are just quicky demos. The live instruments were recorded straight into a laptop.

We also host the monthly "UKULELE SPOTLIGHT" program on KPFK 90.7 FM Los Angeles & 98.7 FM Santa Barbara, streaming online at www.kpfk.org, which airs the last Thursday of the month at 11:00 am PST
You can check out some of the previous shows [ here ].
