Let's make this birthday one to remember.

48 years old (Born on November 03, 1976)

Happy Birthday, Jake Shimabukuro! May your day be filled with more joy than the countless jaws you've dropped worldwide. Your ukulele skills are so legendary that even George Harrison would have paused to say, "Wait—can my guitar gently weep like THAT?" From viral YouTube sensation to global stage maestro, you’ve proven time and again that four strings can indeed rule them all.

Here's wishing you another year of dazzling performances and finger-blurring solos. Keep strumming those magical notes; after all these years we're still trying—and hilariously failing—to replicate your epic rendition of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps."
