I busk occasionally. Last night a young lady talked to me about my technique, saying my performance would improve if I used her technique, which she said is plucking with her fretting hand only without using her strumming hand at all. I asked her to show me how she does it, and she declined taking my uke cause she never lets anybody play her instruments.
I only know of one uke player, KJ aka Onehandstrumman, that plays with one hand on fretboard.
Is there a style of playing out there as she described? I know of hammer ons and pull offs, but I don't see how you can rely solely on that for performance. Also, I know you can hammer frets with fingers, sorta like playing piano, but that's not what she was talking about.
