Taking the ukulele to whole new levels of artistry
There are ukulele players...and then there's Jake Shimabukuro. Declared a "hero" by Rolling Stone, the Hawaiian born musician has taken the humble instrument to new levels, blending bluegrass, flamenco and classical techniques in a lightning-quick flurry of fingerpicking.
He first came to the world's attention back in 2006, when his rendition of While My Guitar Gently Weeps, recorded in Central Park, went viral on Youtube. Since then he's continued to hone his talent, through both original compositions and covers. Don't miss his artistry live when he heads to town!
