Ukelele god comes to Saranac Lake

Our sound and tech guy, Joel Hurd, turned me on to the fact that Jake Shimabukuro is playing at Will Rogers in Saranac Lake on June 20th.

Shimabukuro is sort of to the ukelele what Bela Fleck is to the banjo. Check out the link to a Youtube performance in Central Park here. It’s pretty amazing.

Shimabukuro’s website is here. Joel says he’ll have a profile during the 8 O’clock Hour later this week, so stay tuned for that.
