Acoustic Shu is a self taught loopologist, with a melting pot of influences. Gaining recognition at the age of 18, he began sitting in with local bands in the central Ohio area. Shortly after his skills matured, he began booking his own shows in the local bars, restaurants, and pubs skillfully disguising his real age. What really set him apart was his love for the classics. When everyone was playing top 40 radio songs, Shu was showcasing songs that had been around longer than him. After high school he began taking his talent on the road playing anywhere and everywhere he could. His travels have taken him from one corner of the nation to the other, and in doing so, he has broadened his musical spectrum. Acoustic Shu has an arsenal of material with hundreds of cover songs, along with many originals. One of Shu’s best qualities is his adaptations of well known cover material to suite his unmistakable voice. Showcasing rock, jazz, reggae, tejano, funk, and even classical, his style is amorphous which guarantees you never to see the same show twice.
