A singer-songwriter from Maui\, she has over 15 years of experience in the music industry\, carving out a unique space for herself by combining everything from island reggae\, acoustic soul\, pop\, and even hip-hop into a sound that is honest\, emotional\, and unmistakably her own. \nHer catalogue of self-written songs has garnered multiple Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards\, including Female Vocalist of the Year in 2019\, and she has been featured on both Grammy-nominated and Grammy-winning albums. However\, referring to her solely as a musician does not capture her full range of talents. Anuhea is also an actor\, graphic designer\, creative director\, merch maker\, tour planner\, website builder\, content creator\, and a full-time mom. From album covers and logos to tour posters and social media visuals\, if you see something with her name on it\, there’s a good chance she created it herself. \nHer latest album\, “Lotus” commemorates 15 years since her debut and reflects the growth\, strength\, and self-discovery that come from forging one’s own path through all of life’s seasons. Anuhea skillfully balances her full-time music career with raising her son\, Ikena Jack\, who began touring with her even before he was born. Additionally\, she gives back to the community through her mental health podcast “Just Keep Jamming”\, her work with local non-profits and mentorship programs\, and her Aloha Always Foundation provides scholarships for Hawai’i students. \nWhether performing on a festival stage or jamming with keiki in a school gym\, Anuhea infuses humility\, humor\, and heart into everything she does. She is not just Hawai‘i’s sweetheart; she is a one-woman creative force with a voice\, a vision\, and a supportive community behind her. \nShow Date\nSaturday\, April 25\, 2026 \nShow Details\n5:30 PM: Doors Open\n6:30 PM: Opener TBD\n7:30 PM: Anuhea \nTimes subject to change.

Even fewer bands leave a legacy during that time that marks them as a truly special\, once in lifetime type band. And no band has done all that and had as much fun as Leftover Salmon. \nSince their earliest days as a forward thinking\, progressive bluegrass band who had the guts to add drums to the mix and who was unafraid to stir in any number of highly combustible styles into their ever evolving sound\, to their role as a pioneer of the modern jamband scene\, to their current status as elder statesmen of the scene who cast a huge influential shadow over every festival they play\, Leftover Salmon has been a crucial link in keeping alive the traditional music of the past while at the same time pushing that sound forward with their own weirdly\, unique style. \nSalmon is a band who over their thirty year career has never stood still; they are constantly changing\, evolving\, and inspiring. If someone wanted to understand what Americana music is they could do no better than to go to a Leftover Salmon show\, where they effortlessly glide from a bluegrass number born on the front porch\, to the down and dirty Cajun swamps with a stop on Bourbon Street in New Orleans\, to the hallowed halls of the Ryman in Nashville\, before firing one up in the mountains of Colorado. \nGuest Artists\nThis year marks our 4th Annual High Country Kaua’i and with it we are welcoming a whole new group of friends to help us celebrate in fine fashion.

DESCRIPTION:OperAloha! \nChamber Music Kauai will be offering a one-night-only performance of OperAloha on Saturday\, March 7 at 7pm at St. Michael and All Angels Church in Lihue. Opera Aloha is a concert tour that blends opera with the diverse musical traditions of Hawaii\, presented by global opera talent. Over the past four years\, the series has showcased music in more than a dozen languages\, reflecting the cultural richness of the islands\, including Native Hawaiian\, Maori\, Samoan\, Chinese\, Japanese\, Korean\, Tagalog\, Portuguese\, and Spanish\, alongside traditional operatic repertoire in Italian\, French\, German\, and English. The program emphasizes personal storytelling and the shared tradition of ensemble singing\, something both opera and Hawaiian music deeply value. \nOne of the program’s special highlights will be a performance by hula dancer Jelacia Peralta\, who will be Kauai’s Miss Aloha Hula contestant at the Merrie Monarch Festival this April! \n>> Get Tickets << \nThe concert will feature Samoan soprano Aivale Cole\, who performs regularly across Europe and is known both as an opera singer and a film music performer. Many will recognize her soaring soprano voice from The Lord of the Rings. Also appearing is Maori-Chinese bass Morgan Andrew King\, currently based at the Frankfurt Opera and a graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music. He will be joining the Paris Opera Ensemble this summer\, and just before coming to us\, he’ll be on an all-Maori concert tour in Switzerland\, making his appearance here especially meaningful. Tenor Christopher Oglesby\, based in San Francisco\, sings regularly with San Francisco Opera and Opera San Jose. He returns to the islands after a very successful appearance with Opera Aloha last season and brings both vocal power and a strong connection with local audiences. \nThe producer of Opera Aloha is concert pianist Ronny Michael Greenberg\, who has worked extensively in Hawaii since 2018\, including with the Hawaii Performing Arts Festival on the Big Island\, Kahilu Theatre\, and Hawaii Opera Theatre. Ronny returns to Hawaii Opera Theatre this April to work on their newly commissioned Hawaiian opera\, “Kamalehua: The Sheltering Tree”. \nA maximum of 150 tickets will be sold. Any tickets remaining at the time of the concert will be available for $30 by cash\, Hawaii check\, Zelle\, or Venmo. \n>> OperAloha << \nFor more information\, contact Chamber Music Kauai director Greg Shepherd at 808-482-1455 or broadwaypacificproductions@gmail.com.

A proud Filipino growing up in Hawaii\, Ciara-Camile (Eli-Mac spelled backwards) Roque Velasco was a rebel early on\, combining her island music roots with her love of R&B and hip-hop. At the age of 18\, Camile’s journey took shape when she landed a spot on the hit TV show American Idol as a Top 10 finalist on Season 3. From there\, Eli-Mac went on to record a version of Bob Marley’s “Guava Jelly\,” produced by his son Stephen Marley\, at Tuff Gong Studios in Jamaica. The track earned her the Hawaii Music Awards’ “Single of the Year.” Since then\, Eli-Mac has been touring relentlessly across the US and beyond. A new studio album is currently in the works for this year\, following up on her latest release “Resume” featuring Collie Buddz. \nEli-Mac’s musical and fashion style comes from growing up in the ‘90s listening to Lauryn Hill\, Salt-N-Pepa\, TLC\, and Erykah Badu along with hip-hop icons Wu-Tang Clan\, Nas\, Tupac Shakur\, and Mobb Deep. She shared her mom’s love of ‘70s disco and ‘80s Madonna\, while her father turned her onto ‘60s classic rock and jazz from The Eagles and The Doors to Billie Holiday. She discovered her sound by combining her three favorite genres – roots reggae\, hip-hop and R&B – creating the groundbreaking Dubstop EP with subsequent dub-wise\, rootsy songs like “Can’t Get Enough” and “Roots Girl.” Earlier releases\, like the slinky “Mr. Sensi” featuring Conkarah\, represent Eli-Mac’s unique urban island style and support for cannabis culture. \n“I am proud to incorporate my upbringing in Hawaii into my music. That culture remains important to me…” \nBy rebranding herself as Eli-Mac\, Camile has been able to step outside herself – and the limitations put on her by others. She has emerged into a rebellious\, confident\, polarizing performer\, not an alter ego\, as she insists – but a truer version of her real self. \n“Eli-Mac is an extension of who I really am\,” she explains. “And that has allowed me the\nultimate freedom to finally be myself without conforming to any of the stereotypes the industry imposes on women.” \nEli-Mac has shared the stage with iconic artists like Gwen Stefani\, Sublime\, Lauryn Hill\, Shaggy\, Stephen Marley\, Iration\, SOJA\, Collie Buddz\, J Boog and Common Kings\, just to name a few. \nShow Date\nSaturday\, March 7\, 2026 \nShow Details\n5:30 PM: Doors Open\n6:30 PM: Music \nTimes subject to change.

An emotional touchstone in Hawaiian music\, its songs originated during the Hawaiian monarchy era (late 19th/early 20th centuries) and serve as both a tribute to the past and a promise for the future. \nTranscending its historical context\, Legacy reclaims the narrative of Hawai‘i’s musical past\, rediscovering the breadth and depth of this musical heritage before the story became overshadowed by colonial influences. Hawaiian string bands toured the U.S. with this music during this era\, and as Folk Alley notes “Hawaiian music in the early 1900s was a global phenomenon\, a driver of wide technological change. If you like the pedal steel in country\, the slide guitar in blues\, or even the electric guitar in rock\, you owe a debt to Hawaiians.” Notes project collaborator Kilin Reece\, of Kealakai Center for Pacific Strings\, “It’s an incredibly vibrant and untold story.” \nHer “Legacy” band includes guitar\, ‘ukulele\, steel guitar\, bass\, and fiddles. Raiatea captures the attention of audiences throughout her native islands and around the world\, interpreting this Hawaiian repertoire with her awe-inspiring vocal mastery. \nRaiatea Helm\nRaiatea Helm\, a two-time Grammy nominee and multiple Nā Hōkū Hanohano awards recipient\, is recognized as one of Hawaii’s premier female vocalists. Among her awards\, she was honored in Hawai‘i four times as Female Vocalist of the Year. A master of the art of leo kiʻe kiʻe – Hawaiian falsetto – she shares her pure\, crystalline voice and passionate knowledge of Hawaiʻi’s rich history through traditional mele [songs]. Her music career spans 20 years and includes seven album releases\, recorded and performed with legendary musicians including Keola Beamer\, Aunty Genoa Keawe\, Keali’i Reichel\, Willie K and Mick Fleetwood. \nShow Date\nSaturday\, February 28\, 2026 \nShow Details\n5:30 PM: Doors Open\n6:30 PM: Music \nTimes subject to change.
