Review for Jake Shimabukoro:
The 12 studio tracks that comprise The Greatest Day feature some of Shimabukuro’s most imaginative and adventuresome playing yet.
The Greatest Day is the follow up to 2016’s Nashville Sessions. On it, Jake brings back the same producer and rhythm section, adding guitarist Dave Preston to expand upon the sound they started creating two years ago.
Accompanying Shimabukuro on tour will be longtime bassist Nolan Verner and guitarist Dave Preston. The three of them have come together to create an experience unlike past shows or unlike anything you’ve seen/heard before. They truly are a dynamic touring trio.
They will perform songs from Jake’s past albums, Live in Japan (2015) and Travels (2015), favorites from his 15-year career, and several songs from his studio album Nashville Sessions along with songs from his current much anticipated new album. Jake is hitting most states, filling up venues, evidence of the devoted fan base that is flourishing even in cities he is visiting for the first time.
