Billie Eilish is teaming up with Fender to release her own signature ukulele.
The ukulele is the first instrument Billie learned to play at just six years old. And in a promotional video, she revealed the first song she ever wrote on the ukulele was about going outside to play while singing, "What a wonderful life for us." Billie also explained that after learning her first three chords, she knew how to play 20 songs. She explained, "It shows you how simple songs are."
Eilish continued about the simplicity of the ukulele, "It used to be where I could write everything ... because it's simple. And I think the ukulele brings a different feeling to every single ... it inspires a different kind of writing. I feel like different instruments always make me write differently."
She added, "Basically, the rules of ukulele are if you know three chords, you know every song ever."
Billie's signature Fender ukulele is the same model that she uses on stage, and was designed herself with her "blohsh" symbol.
Billie's Fender ukulele retails for $299.99, and a statement about the collaboration says:
"As soon as she burst onto the scene with her 2015 single 'Ocean Eyes,' it was clear that Billie Eilish is a force to be reckoned with. In the years since, she has established herself as a new kind of pop culture icon, taking the fashion and music industries by storm on her own terms. Billie's meteoric ascent to pop stardom started with the ukulele, the first instrument she learned to play. Designed in collaboration with Billie Eilish, her Signature Ukulele is a stage-ready instrument that embodies Billie's bold, unmistakable style."
