Shimabukuro has been a world-wide sensation ever since his Ukulele Weeps became a hit on YouTube.

With a hearty Aloha! ukulele virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro greeted the crowd at Strathmore Music Center last night.

Yeah, the name is tough to pronounce, but Jake Shimabukuro’s talent is easy to see. The Hawaiian-born ukulele performer and composer brought his gift to The Birchmere recently in a show that featured both brilliance and a beloved, special guest.

No recording can do justice to what the artist can do with the instrument.

Jake Shimabukuro brought his predominantly solo concert back to Tucson's Rialto Theatre for the third time in the last few years and it was a joyous affair! He quietly took the stage and started strumming his intro and had one closed their eyes, you could mistake the ukulele for a violin, guitar or any other

Yes an unheard of sold-out performance on a Tuesday night, but it happened that is the kind of following this young performer has.
