Event Description:
Hailed by Rolling Stone as “one of the hottest axemen of the past few years who doesn’t actually play guitar,” ukulele sensation Jake Shimabukuro puts his inspired touch on everything from island standards to popular tunes and classical symphonic concertos in his Lied Center debut. Elevating the ukulele from a beloved Hawaiian folk instrument to a world-class vehicle, he fearlessly traverses musical boundaries and has collaborated with artists from Bette Midler and Yo-Yo Ma to Ziggy Marley and Chris Botti.
