Ever ponder what Jimi Hendrix might have sounded like if he played a ukulele?  Me neither, but Jake Shimabukuro has. While he respects tradition as much as the next Hawaiian, the 28 year old virtuoso is instilled with a thirst for experimentation.  Occasionally transforming the gentle four-stringed instrument into a roaring guitar is his idea of a good time. 

An excitable guy this Jake, he loves to jump through a wide range of styles like jazz, blues, funk, classical, bluegrass, folk, flamenco, and of course, rock.  Next Wednesday’s SOhO audience is in for a wild ride.
