My man Tad Nakamura hits me up with some video from his latest project. Here's a cool new video of ukulele virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro performing "Blue Roses Falling," shot in Hawaii last month. It's beautiful. Take a look:
Tad is actually working on a full-length feature documentary about Jake Shimabukuro's life and music career, produced by the Center for Asian American Media. This video is from some of the footage they shot for the film.
I've been a fan of all of Tad's short films thus far, and I can't wait to see what he does with a full-length doc. For more from Tad Nakamura, go to his website here. For more from Jake Shimabukuro, go to his website here.
