Tica Felise - Unapologetic Ukulele Goddess

To commemorate and celebrate 15 years of the Tasty BrewMusic Radio Show on KKFI,  I partnered with the Heartland Song Network in the summer of 2025 to seek submissions for a theme song for the show.  Although I did not ultimately choose the entry submitted by Kansas City based songwriter Tica Felise, I was enchanted by her story and musical journey and invited her to spend some time with me on air so my listeners and I could get to know her better.Tica was born in Costa Rica and has found a home in KansasCity by way of Denver and Omaha.  A very early interest in music led to lessons and performance eventually morphing into writing her own songs and performing and recording as a solo artist in Kansas City.  Enjoy this conversation with an unapologetic ukulele goddess as we share some of the stories behind the recordings of Tica Felise!
