Jake Shimabukuro with A Far Cry

In the hands of Shimabukuro, the traditional Hawaiian instrument of four strings and two octaves is stretched and molded into a complex and bold new musical force. On his most recent album ‘Peace Love Ukulele', Jake and his “uke” effortlessly mix jazz, rock, classical, traditional Hawaiian music, and folk, creating a sound that’s both technically masterful and emotionally
powerful…and utterly unique in the music world.
