Flea Market Music

Flea Market Music is an American company which publishes and sells ukulele-related books and music.

History
Flea Market Music was founded in 1992 by Jim Beloff and his wife, Liz Beloff, to publish music books for the ukulele community. A guitarist for many years, Jim bought a used Martin ukulele at a flea market and later left his job with Billboard Magazine to make a full-time career of promoting the ukulele. The company name combines the meaning of ukulele in Hawaiian, 'jumping flea', and the purchase of Beloff's first ukulele at the Rose Bowl Flea Market.

Flea Market Music has published a wide variety of ukulele instructional books (distributed by the Hal Leonard Corporation) and DVDs as well as CDs of recorded ukulele music. As of May 2002, over 600,000 books have been sold. The company's products are sold through retail and online.

Beloff and his wife, Liz, perform and give workshops at festivals and other musical events to promote ukuleles and the Flea Market Music products. In 2014 they were guests on a WNPR radio show with ukulelist Jake Shimabukuro, discussing ukuleles and ukulele music.
