Direct from Taiwan, Feng E redefines the ukulele with a rock show of epic proportions. A prodigy from the age of four and a viral YouTube sensation by age ten, Feng E presents incredible arrangements of modern hits alongside his own remarkable compositions.

His virtuosity is apparent from the very first pluck of the strings, delivering a performance that is both technically astonishing and wildly entertaining. This is not a show you want to miss. It is unforgettable.

Born in 2007, Feng E first rose to international fame in 2018 when a video of him performing Tommy Emmanuel’s arrangement of Mason Williams’ “Classical Gas” on the ukulele in a Taipei park went viral worldwide. The performance eventually led to live appearances with Tommy Emmanuel himself in both Taiwan and Hong Kong.

Following the viral success, Feng E was invited to perform on The Ellen DeGeneres Show for a global audience. He appeared on the show twice, in 2018 and 2019, with each appearance garnering more than 2.3 million views online. In 2020, he advanced to the quarter-finals of America’s Got Talent. Today, his largest social media audience is in the United States.

Feng E has become a major star in the world of ukulele music, performing and winning competitions internationally in Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, China, and Hawaii. On Asia’s Got Talent in 2017, he was the only competitor to receive the Golden Buzzer from producer David Foster.

To date, Feng E has mastered five musical instruments, beginning with piano at the age of four, and has composed numerous original works. His popularity continues to soar through his inventive ukulele covers of popular music, earning him more than 768K YouTube subscribers and millions upon millions of views worldwide. His expert musicianship and joyful, fearless approach to performance have captured the attention and admiration of audiences and major artists across the globe.
