(Vancouver, BC) – Music on Main presents one of today’s most

stunning virtuosos, 'ukulele player James Hill with cellist Anne

Davison as part of the Main Series at Heritage Hall on Thursday,

April 30, 2009 at 8:00 PM.

From YouTube sensations to the New York Times, the 'ukulele is

hailed as one of today's hottest musical instruments, and Canada's

James Hill is stoking the flames as one of the world's hottest

players. With his mind-boggling virtuosity, open-hearted artistry and

sense of humour, James takes the 'ukulele to places previously

unimagined. Don't miss his Main Series concert with cellist Anne

Davison where you'll hear inspired arrangements and original

compositions, including tracks off their brand new album True Love

Don't Weep. Come find out why CBC Radio calls him "the Wayne Gretzky

of the 'ukulele".
