"Blues Experience" Album Release ShowsJake ShimabukuroBlues Experience Album Release ShowsJoin us as Jake celebrates the release of his new album Blues Experience!For his brand-new project, Shimabukuro joins forces with his friend, drumming legend and founding member of Fleetwood Mac, Mick Fleetwood, to create a fresh new take on the Blues. Ive always wanted to do a Blues album and when Mick and I started talking about working together, I thought who better to work with than Mick Fleetwood? The result is something exhilarating and unique, as these two titans of their instruments reinterpret some of the greatest songs written by some of their favorite songwriters in a Blues setting.Its a union whose roots go back to the late 1990s when a young Shimabukuro met and played with Fleetwood at the Hawaiian Music Awards ceremony along with singer songwriter Kenny Loggins. It wasnt until a few years ago, that the two were reconnected by a mutual friend at a Fleetwood Mac reunion concert in Nashville. That night, the seeds of the collaboration were planted at Fleetwoods suggestion. Not long thereafter the two convened along with Jakes touring bassist Jackson Waldhoff and keyboard player Michael Grande to start work on a new studio album in Maui. Mark Johnstone from The Mick Fleetwood Blues Band plays keys on two songs, Need Your Love So Bad, and Rockin In The Free World.Tickets $35-$45__________________________________________CLUB POLICIESSeating is First Come, First Served$10 Food or Beverage Minimum Per Person Full Bar & Full Dinner Menu AvailableNo refunds or exchange.
