At the age of 13, Kris Fuchigami began his musical journey with a beat up old ukulele in his hands and a strong desire to play like his new found idol, Jake Shimabukuro. He quickly discovered that he had a natural talent for the ukulele as mimicking his idol’s songs came very easily to him.
Now, at the age of 22, Kris has released three CDs and has performed with musical greats such as Jake Shimabukuro, Mark Yamanaka, Daniel Ho and Brittni Paiva.
