New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Shore Fire Media) Ukulele missionary and "international sensation" (Today Show) Jake Shimabukuro will take his "virtuosic chops" (Billboard) worldwide with his 2014 "Uke Nations Tour" which will include dates in U.S., Canada, Australia, Japan and more.
Shimabukuro will bring his "remarkable skill" (NPR) and "bravura instrumentals" (Wall Street Journal) to 29 different cities across the United States. His solo set "transforms the tiny instrument into a million different musical forms, dexterously playing jazz, rock, classical, traditional Hawaiian music, and folk all on a humble ukulele" (Huffington Post).
"I'm really looking forward to the Uke Nations Tour," said Shimabukuro. "I've worked up some new songs and arrangements. It's going to be a bit more experimental this time around."
