SUMMARY:The Polish Ambassador
DESCRIPTION:The Polish Ambassador\nHawaii Island Tour 2025 – TICKETS HERE \nShow Date\nSaturday February 8th\, 2025 \nThe Polish Ambassador\nMusician. Producer. Beatsmith. Recording artist. Composer. Dance-floor general. Label-head. A mystery man of many hats\, The Polish Ambassador rocks more than just a trademark jumpsuit\, authoring sublime\, intentional artistic works\, animated safaris in technicolor sound. At first breath\, The Polish Ambassador was an experiment\, David Sugalski’s sound-art passion project that came to life. An inventive\, imaginary character bor Bold Keyboard shortcut Command+Bn of humble\, humorous beginnings\, he found his first audiences through the support of primitive digital radio stations. Today\, TPA is among the premier EDM/live crossover artists in the country with millions of listeners around the world; he’s consistently in-demand at the live music-focused gatherings and boutique electronic festivals from coast to coast. Founder of independent label Jumpsuit Records\, an environmentalist and early progenitor of the permaculture action movement\, the world’s funkiest diplomat is here to party with a purpose. \nSince 2006\, The Polish Ambassador has consistently released critically-acclaimed full-length albums on Jumpsuit Records\, alongside a dizzying number of side-projects and multi-form collaborations. All the while launching the careers of a diverse smattering of artists that run the gamut in geography and genre. TPA continues to spread his wings in teaming up with eclectic musicians from around the world\, including Matisyahu\, Nitty Scott\, Zion I\, The Grouch\, Mr. Lif\, and dozens of others. He is one-half of the celebrated folktronica project Wildlight\, a duo in which he pairs with ethereal songstress Ayla Nereo. \nThe Polish Ambassador’s prolific output incorporates many styles\, from exuberant global-house to fatback mid-tempo funk\, you’ll pick up on West African percussion alongside stirring Kirtan melodies\, a psychedelic sax solo or a fresh verse from a Brooklyn female emcee. TPA employs live horns\, keyboards\, guitars\, violins\, and a bevy of talented instrumentalists on stage. “The Jumpsuited One” has headlined iconic venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison\, Colorado\, and the renowned counter-culture gathering Oregon Country Fair. Suwannee Hulaween\, Electric Forest\, Envision Festival\, and Lightning in a Bottle and other national festivals have each repeatedly invited TPA back across different years. \nIn alignment with TPA’s artistic ethos is a low-key lifestyle that places a premium on being present\, living in harmony with nature\, participating in community and inspiring it to thrive. Offstage\, David Sugalski instigated a village-building convergence in his hometown in Northern California\, and manages his own 25-acre homestead in the picture-Esque\, rolling Sierra Nevada foothills. The farmer/carpenter lives modestly in a cabin he built on his land of the lush; TPA music is created in a solar-powered recording studio on the property. When he removes the famed bright blue-and-yellow 80’s jumpsuit and reverts back to his humanoid self\, Sugalski is an avid solo bicyclist who enjoys venturing up California’s breathtaking coastal Highway 1; he’s a dedicated van-adventurer\, having built out an exquisite tiny home inside a contractors van. \nSugalski plans his TPA tours for minimum carbon footprint\, he advocates for healthy-beverage alternatives at music venues. Jumpsuit Records has donated tens of thousands of dollars to various non-profit organizations and charities; a portion of the label split goes to supporting non-profits voted on by fans. TPA’s awareness-in-action coalesces with numerous non-profit endeavors\, including Jumpsuit Records\, own 501(c) certified organization ActionDays.us. TPA decided to eliminate the merchandise from his business model\, in order to facilitate a fan-operated buy-and-sell marketplace. The Polish Ambassador has evolved exponentially\, from an art project to a vibration; a joyful community that thrives on the dancefloor and finds freedom\, connection\, and collective oneness through this music. \nConcerts with a Cause\nAnaina Hou Community Park is excited to continue our Concerts with a Cause Mission Driven Music offerings with The Polish Ambassador! This concert is shining light on The Kauai Humane Society. $2 from every ticket purchased to the show will go back to supporting their amazing work. For more information or to make a direct donation to KHS please visit https://kauaihumane.org/donate \n\n\n\nWhat’s included\n\nThis is GA standing room show. We will have some seating sections set up throughout the venue available on a first come first serve basis. \nWe will have some covered raised tables available around the perimeter of the lawned area. \n\n\n\nWhat’s not included\n\nBeverage Concessions both Alcoholic and Non Alcoholic will be available throughout the show. \nFood will be available for purchase on site.

SUMMARY:JAKE SHIMABUKURO
DESCRIPTION:Show Date\nSaturday\, February 15th\, 2025 \nJake Shimabukuro – TICKETS HERE\nSince gaining prominence in the early 2000’s\, ukulele marvel Jake Shimabukuro has mesmerized audiences with his innovative and dynamic style\, taking the instrument to dizzying new heights. Over a dozen solo albums\, Shimabukuro has shown a knack for moving effortlessly between genres\, sometimes in the same song. After being taught the instrument by his mother at age four\, Jake became a local phenom\, performing on his own and in a local group Pure Heart. Early in his solo career he became a YouTube sensation when his cover of George Harrison’s “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” went viral. Since then\, Jake has gone on to play the world’s most venerable venues\, from The Hollywood Bowl to Lincoln Center to the Sydney Opera House and The N.O. Jazz Fests and collaborated with some of the world’s greatest musicians\, including Yo-Yo Ma\, Bela Fleck and The Flecktones\, Jimmy Buffett\, Jack Johnson\, Bette Midler\, Ziggy Marley\, Sonny Landreth\, Billy Strings\, Lukas & Willie Nelson and Warren Haynes. Shimabukuro has also won his share of awards and\, just a few years ago he was nominated by President Joe Biden to serve as a Member for the National Council on the Arts. \nOne strong thread that runs through much of Shimabukuro’s work is that of collaboration. From the Trio album to Jake & Friends to Grateful and beyond\, Shimabukuro thrives in the ability to feed off and inspire his fellow musicians. For his brand-new project Blues Experience\, Shimabukuro joins forces with his friend\, drumming legend and founding member of Fleetwood Mac\, Mick Fleetwood\, to create a fresh new take on the Blues. “I’ve always wanted to do a Blues album and when Mick and I started talking about working together\, I thought who better to work with than Mick Fleetwood?” The result is something exhilarating and unique\, as these two titans of their instruments reinterpret some of the greatest songs written by some of their favorite songwriters in a Blues setting. \nIt’s a union whose roots go back to the late 1990s when a young Shimabukuro met and played with Fleetwood at the Hawaiian Music Awards ceremony along with singer songwriter Kenny Loggins. It wasn’t until a few years ago\, that the two were reconnected by a mutual friend at a Fleetwood Mac reunion concert in Nashville. That night\, the seeds of the collaboration were planted at Fleetwood’s suggestion. Not long thereafter the two convened along with Jake’s touring bassist Jackson Waldhoff and keyboard player Michael Grande to start work on a new studio album in Maui. Mark Johnstone from The Mick Fleetwood Blues Band plays keys on two songs\, “Need Your Love So Bad”\, and “Rockin’ In The Free World”. \nOver the course of two 3-day sessions\, the band recorded 9 songs live in the studio. The only track that was not recorded with all of the musicians playing together was Sonny Landreth’s brilliant slide guitar on the Jeff Beck/Stevie Wonder classic “Cause We’ve Ended As Lovers”. This soaring track full of peaks and valleys was a tremendous way to start the album. The interplay between Landreth and Shimabukuro is so seamless\, you’d never know that they did not play together in the same room. The Chemistry is due in large part to the two performing the song w ww.sarapetite.com | http://www.fortybelowrecords.com together during a recent tour. In addition\, Sonny would often sit in with Jimmy Buffett’s Coral Reefer Band back when Jake was a member. \nUp next is a truly unique interpretation of the Blues standard\, “Rollin’ N Tumblin’”. The song fades in with a swirling\, delay-drenched psychedelic uke over top of Fleetwood’s tribal drumming pattern\, giving credence to why Jake is often referred to as the “Jimi Hendrix of the ukulele”. Then\, on a dime\, Jake changes his sound and cuts to playing the song’s theme which is echoed nicely by the Hammond Organ. \nJake’s playing on the track is experimental and otherworldly\, at times ascending into a psych jazz rock fusion in the most visceral ways. “Mick’s energy when he plays is so infectious. He’s such an intense musician. He pushes everyone around him and it’s so inspiring to see his facial expressions and watch his movements and the way he hits the drums\,” says Shimabukuro exuberantly. \nAbout “Kula Blues” Jake explains\, “I’d never written anything that sounded this bluesy or a shuffle\, so I wanted to take a stab at it and have a song where any musician could sit in without needing a chart”. Again\, Jake credits Mick Fleetwood with bringing the track to life. “He just got behind the drums and without even counting it off came charging in. You either jump on the train or get outta the way!” \nA couple of other standouts on the album are “Whiter Shade of Pale” and “Rockin’ in the Free World”. Of the former\, Shimabukuro recalls “I was so in the moment\, I remember just closing my eyes and really forgetting my pedal board and everything and just reacting to Mick and the band.” \nFortuitously\, The Bridge School Benefit\, founded by Neil Young had asked Jake if he would do a cover of “Rockin’ in the Free World” and the same week he and Mick were in the studio. The track has an explosive energy that builds to an incendiary psychedelic guitar\, ‘er make that ukulele solo spurred on by Fleetwood’s thunderous drums. \nOne of the things that really comes across speaking to Jake about this record is the ‘spirits in the air’ during the recordings. This is particularly apparent on their rendition of Fleetwood Mac’s “Songbird”. Recorded not long after Christine McVie’s passing\, the band only did one take. You can feel the emotion in the performance. “I remember Mick took a moment of silence after the song ended and you could see that he felt Christine’s presence.” Fleetwood’s tom tom groove provides the heartbeat for Shimabukuro’s floaty\, ethereal uke\, as he moves naturally between fast strumming chords and lilting melodic phrases. “I felt so fortunate to be able to experience that with Mick. It was very powerful to see the effect it had on him.” \nAnother ‘ghost in the machine’ or ‘happy accident’ was the sound of the drums leaking into the ukulele’s electric pickup. Because the musicians were so close together\, you can hear all the drums on the ukulele track. When the fx are going on the uke\, you get this cool subtle layer of the drum fx in the mix\, contributing to the overall vibe and cohesion of the record. Not long after the completion of the record\, Maui was devastated by historic wildfires. At the benefit concert in Honolulu Fleetwood once again joined Shimabukuro and the band to perform the songs on Blues Experience for the first time. Before the performance\, Fleetwood gave a powerful and inspirational speech to the community. Shimabukuro expands on this\, \, “Mick’s like the point guard on a basketball team making everyone around him play better. It’s really incredible. He has such a huge presence\, charisma and energy. It was such an honor to do this project together. \n\n\n\nWhat’s included\n\nThis is a tiered ticketing level show. \nVIP Pavilion Seating includes access to the front row of seats in the pavilion.

SUMMARY:Kahili Feather Making Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Looking for volunteers who would like to be part of this project to make 2 large feather Kahili’s for our upcoming Kaua’i King’s Parade on June 14\, 2025. Laura Wolfgang a Kumu Lei Hulu (Master feather lei maker) will be teaching the class. \nLaura “Kawailehua” Wolfgang has been a Lei Hulu Practitioner for the past 7 years although her love of feather art started approximately 60 years ago during her school visit to the Bishop Museum. Since that time\, she has visited the museum with most annual visits home while she was living in the mainland serving in the US Navy as a Navy Nurse Practitioner. Her fascination with feather art continued and after researching\, found an online course on creating lei hulu. Her Kumu\, Auntie Pattie Hannah-Gomez of Maui Feather Lei recognized her talents and pushed her skills and creativity. She was then granted permission to formally teach and finished her uniki process in 2024. \nShe now owns Na Hulu Arts and actively teaches at the Kaua’i Museum and with private lessons. She also serves as a vendor to many Kaua’i Made and Hawaiian cultural events to include Merrie Monarch. She states that her main purpose is to perpetuate this art and hopes that younger local folks will learn\, cherish and continue to keep this art form alive. \nAlthough she has never constructed a large kahili\, she is well versed at making smaller kahili and creating the “bundles” and “branches” that are used in the large kahili. With her teaching skills she will help to lead this historical event to create two beautiful large kahili for the community to display for many years to come. \nYOU MUST SIGNUP TO ATTEND \nMore information will be given once you register for the class. There is no fee to attend\, only a commitment to take part in this project. \n

SUMMARY:E Kanikapila Kākou Week 3:  Jamminʻ with the Masters – Ledward Kaapana\, Jeff Peterson\, Bobby Ingano & David Kamakahi
DESCRIPTION:E Kanikapila Kākou 2025  \nOUTRIGGER Kaua‘i Beach Resort and Spa  \nTheme: “Music Heals” & “Hawaiian Music Traditions”  \nMonday Nights – 6:00 – 8:30 pm\, through March 24; Doors open at 5:00 pm \nWeek 3\, February 17 – Jamminʻ with the Masters – Ledward Kaapana\, Jeff Peterson\, Bobby Ingano & David Kamakahi \nThe fortunate few who get to sit backstage or in the garage while master musicians have fun sharing their joy of music in informal kanikapila-style experience a very special scene.  Four master musicians at the top of their game will welcome you into their special space where they talk music to each other\, challenge each other\, inspire each other with their unique styles and artistry. “Without the burden of audience expectations and while sharing within the safe haven of a musical ʻohana\, artists love to play the music that wells out of a deeper place of sharing and camaraderie.” \nLed Kaapana thrills and inspires audiences worldwide with his unmatched virtuosity in kihoʻalu\, ʻukulele\, and leo kie kie\, and he throws in an unexpected joke if he is so moved. His devoted fans from many corners of the world call themselves “LedHeads” and often show up wherever Led performs. Expect the unexpected with Led as every performance is spontaneous and fresh. He often jokes\, “I no rehearse!” He thrills audiences and when the audience thrills him\, he lets out his inimitable Ledward giggle. \nInspired and mentored by Led\, David Kamakahi has honed his craft as one of the outstanding ʻukulele players of this generation. He toured extensively with his father\, the late Reverand Dennis Kamakahi\, composer extraordinaire\, and now plays with the group Waipuna along with Kale Hannahs and Matt Sproat. We are fortunate to be able to have him share his ʻukulele virtuosity on Kauaʻi between two tours to Japan. Jamminʻ with such a revered circle of artists\, David is sure to “cut loose”! \nBobby Ingano\, undoubtedly THE master steel guitar artist in Hawaiʻi\, spends much time on tour with Taj Mahal\, but values any time he can spend time playing music on Kauaʻi. A lead artist in the Steel Guitar festivals staged on all the islands\, Bobby WOWʻs the audience when he “Sleepwalks” and plays any of his mesmerizing steel solos. Humble and quiet\, his music speaks volumes as kolohe Bobby adds delightful paʻani and unexpected steel sounds to enhance the music by other artists. Born in Lanai City\, Lanai\, Bobby credits his teachers for his musical guidance – grandparents\, aunts\, uncles and Feet Rogers. \nJeff Peterson is undoubtedly a master musician at the top of his game\, comfortable with audiences worldwide in a variety of musical genres. Peterson’s style fuses traditional Slack Key with elements of classical and jazz guitar. Born on the Island of Maui\, Jeff grew up on the slopes of Haleakala where he was introduced to the rich heritage of Hawaiian music by his father\, a paniolo\, or Hawaiian cowboy\, on the Haleakala Ranch. The music that he heard from his father and other paniolos as well as the slack key on classic recordings by the Gabby Pahinui Band\, Leonard Kwan\, and Sonny Chillingworth made a deep and lasting impression on him that he continues to draw inspiration from today. He went on to study jazz and classical guitar at the University of Southern California and at the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa; today he is one of the most sought after artists in Hawaiʻi. \nPurchase tickets at:  http://EKK2025.eventbrite.com \nHotel Parking Options: Parking options at the OUTRIGGER Kaua`i Beach Resort include the following three choices: 1. Valet parking at the porte-cochere; 2. Free event parking in the unpaved area beyond the covered parking stalls — get there by turning right at the first opportunity and then take a left into a dirt field; or 3.
