Ukulena is a Russian-American artist, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and entertainer.
“Ukulena” is a play-on words of her name, Marlena, & her main instrument, the ukulele!
Growing up spinning on Jimmy Durante’s piano stool that was gifted to her great-grandma, Theone, the mysterious “Mrs. Calabash”; with an old soul, she has been song-writing, singing & recording since before she can remember, in the arms of her father, Igor Khramov (of bands: Limpopo & Red Elvises).
She learned ukulele in Hawaii at age 5 & has been performing professionally since age 13.
She has a show-stopping, head-turning presence.
She can light up tiki bars with her siren voice & strums on her ukulele. She can blow off any roof with her soulful original lyrics & full band! And she can perform a Selena experience with her Cumbia band! Meet Marlena Lorèn Khramova, making the scene as Ukulena! Orange County’s Pineapple Princess, Southern California’s Ukulele Queen!
