THE JEREMIAH SHOW - Featuring Jake Shimabukuro! Music is a gift, and the ability to play it is a blessing. Be grateful for both. – Anonymous Acclaimed Hawai’i-born ‘ukulele player Jake Shimabukuro released Grateful, his most personal project to date, featuring twenty-two collaborations with a who’s who of Hawaiian music royalty, from Henry Kapono to Kawika Kahiapo, Brother Noland to Raiatea Helm, John Feary to Bryan Tolentino and John Cruz to Kimié Miner. Recorded over three-and-a-half years, Grateful is a coming home for Shimabukuro, and his first time recording an album with all Hawaii-based artists. With a literal who’s who of Hawai'i-based musicians, this collection of songs is performed live, in the studio with Shimabukuro’s friends, contemporaries, mentors, and heroes - all kanikapila style in a return to his roots. Grateful is the follow-up to the critically acclaimed duets album with artists from Willie Nelson, Ziggy Marley, and Bette Midler to Jimmy Buffett, Jack Johnson, and Kenny Loggins. It was these collaborations that inspired him to go back to the beginning and play with the musicians who first inspired him as he was growing up in Hawai`i. Shimabukuro shares a connection with every artist on this album. Produced by Michael Grande and Van Fletcher, Grateful has been a labor of love and the most intimate look into Shimabukuro’s foundation as a player.
