BACKGROUND - ABOUT UKULA:
The UKULA concept was first brought together in Edinburgh, Scotland. We were DJs. We actually started as consultants for music, concerts and events. However, since the beginning we set out to start a unique but fantastic company. Now we're DJs who do lots of other things. The idea was to explore things that were fashionable and fashion does not pertain to just clothing; music and all things music have always been at the forefront of fashion. We've been DJ'n and throwing parties from the get-go. Fashion can be a piece of furniture or what's surrounding and inspiring you, in my opinion. So we built this brand to work on things that interests us—any facet of what we think is fashionable, using music and special unique events as our catalyst. We also wanted to approach design more holistically, hitting all fronts rather than concentrating on being known for one thing. Since then we've been able to get involved with photography, film, architecture, design and music as a lifestyle in general. So, it has spiralled forward from DJ'n in the beginning that we were able to start our own projects.
THE MAGAZINE:
UKULA Magazine. A unique free, quarterly publication. Features, interviews & insights on new music, film, fashion, art, travel, and literature. Found at bars, concert venues, boutiques, video stores, and restaurants in Toronto, Montreal, NYC, Edinburgh & London.
CONCEPT STORE:
UKULA Concept Store. Was a 3-year fixture at 492 College Street in downtown Toronto. Featured fashion, music, reading, a cafe, & hosted special events. The Globe & Mail perhaps put it best when they stated, "Ukula [Concept Store] is the new ground zero for all things impossibly cool."
The first Friday of the month @ Andy Poolhall.
