Art Fowler(1902-1953)

In the 1920s he was a recording artist known as "The Wizard of the Ukulele," playing tenor ukulele with a nimbleness and dexterity that was very modern sounding and uniquely his own, accompanied by a gentle croon. Wearing a tuxedo and a toothy grin, his face adorned sheet numerous music covers from the Roaring 20s, a time when the ukulele craze was at its peak. Among Fowler's recorded work from the 1920s: "No Wonder She's a Blushing Bride," "Crazy Words, Crazy Tune," and "Just A Bird's Eye View of my Old Kentucky Home."
