SUMMARY:152nd King Kamehameha Day Celebration-King’s Parade & Ho’olaule’a
DESCRIPTION:Plan on attending one of the most colorful and special parades on June 15th in honor of Hawaii’s King Kamehameha\, from 9 to 2pm in Lihue. Pa‘u units including the queen and her entourage of princesses are wahine (women) wearing long\, colorful skirts called pa‘u. The wahine characteristically ride astride rather than sidesaddle\, which stems from the early 19th century when horses were introduced to Hawaii and ali‘i (royalty) women dressed up to ride for formal occasions. The riders participated in performances and displays\, the outfits became more elaborate. Other mounted units and displays are included in the parade \nThe long\, colorful skirts are usually of the color of the Hawaiian Islands the rider represents.  Red\, or ʻulaʻula\, is the color of the Island of Hawaiʻi\, nicknamed the Big Island. The ʻŌhiʻa Lehua is their flower.  Pink\, or ʻākala\, is Maui’s color. Nicknamed the Valley Isle\, their flower is the Lokelani Rose.  Gray\, or ʻāhinahina\, is associated with Kahoʻolawe nicknamed the Target Isle. Hinahina is their designated plant.  Orange\, or ʻalani\, is for Lānaʻi nicknamed the Pineapple Isle. Their lei material is the Kaunaʻoa vine.  Green\, or ʻōmaomao\, is the color of Molokaʻi whose nickname is the Friendly Isle. Their flower is that of the Kukui tree.  Yellow\, or melemele\, represents the island of Oʻahu nicknamed the Gathering Place. The ʻIlima is their flower.  The color purple\, or poni\, is for Kauaʻi nicknamed the Garden Isle. Their lei material is the Mokihana berry.  And white\, or keʻokeʻo\, is the color for the Forbidden Isle\, or Niʻihau. Uniquely\, their lei material is the Niʻihau shell. \nThis year is the 16th anniversary of the Kings Parade.  Pau riders wear special flowers and leis\, along with special dresses flowing off the back of the horse. Horses also are decorated with stunning lei configurations and flowers intertwined into manes and tails. This parade is a sight to behold and shouldn’t be missed. \nRoute road closure starts at 8:30 a.m.  The Parade starts from Vidinha Stadium at 9 a.m. and ends at the Historic Kauai County Building. Bring your own lawn chair\, umbrella and aloha!

SUMMARY:VIRTUOSO JAZZ – Inspirations Ensemble from Canada
DESCRIPTION:The originality of the InSpirations ensemble finds its essence in the subtle assembly of acoustic instruments around the organ\, thus offering a palette of infinitely varied colors. At the heart of Impressions\, the organ becomes a unifying and versatile instrument\, capable of unusual sound textures in synergy with the quartet’s interventions. The immense variety of organ timbres provides an ideal canvas for improvising saxophones and clarinets\, trombones\, percussion\, and double bass.  Impressions is the culmination of stylistic research initiated by each member of the group who\, in concert\, stage original compositions and adaptations of repertoire works. Witness an era rich in cultural convergences and artistic crossbreeding\, the Inspirations Ensemble. \n  \n

The bands unique instrumentation is also a thing to watch and leaves listeners reaching to identify what kind of music they are hearing. With brass horns and a rotating cast of New Orleans musicians coming through\, this sound is alive and something to experience.\n\nLocally\, BBV is one of the highlighted acts in the New Orleans music scene\, Awarded Best Emerging Artist of 2018 by Off Beat Magazine. BBV plays regularly in New Orleans with upcoming appearances at French Quarter Fest\, Jazz Fest\, Bayou Boogaloo and tours regularly spreading the gospel of decadence\, reverence and revelry with their infectious live shows.

SUMMARY:Dirty Cello Makes Porter Pavilion Debut
DESCRIPTION:Dirty Cello Makes Porter Pavilion Debut\nFrom Iceland to Italy\, and all over the U.S.\, San Francisco based band Dirty Cello brings the world a high energy and unique spin on blues\, rock\, and Americana. Led by vivacious cross-over cellist\, Rebecca Roudman\, Dirty Cello is cello like you’ve never heard before. From down home blues and rock with a wailing cello to virtuosic stompin’ Americana\, Dirty Cello is a band that gets your heart thumping and your toes tapping! \n“Dirty Cello’s music is all over the map: funky\, carnival\, romantic\, sexy\, tangled\, electric\, fiercely rhythmic\, and textured\, and only occasionally classical.” Oakland Magazine \n“The band plays every style imaginable\, and does some fantastic covers. (Their rendition of “Purple Haze” is incredible.) But what is most spectacular about them is hearing the depth of soul in Roudman’s playing—it goes beyond what most people would expect from the instrument. She plays it with so much heart\, you’ll wonder why more bands don’t have a cellist.” Good Times Santa Cruz​ \n“A five-piece string ensemble that truly pushes the envelope and breaks the barriers\, they blend blues\, bluegrass and world music sounds with roots in the world of European classical music in a style that is unique and refreshing.” Cloverdale Reveille \n“The group seamlessly careens from blues to bluegrass and rock in a way that really shouldn’t make sense but somehow does.” LA Times \n“The ensemble plays a range of eclectic tunes in ways you won’t hear anyone else dare to attempt.” – Argus Courier \n“Anyone who’s been in an audience when the San Francisco Bay Area Dirty Cello takes the stage knows that something unique happens whenever cellist Rebecca Roudman and ensemble come face to face with living\, breathing (and whooping and shouting) fans.” \n\nStrings Magazine\n\n“Dirty Cello have been hard to describe\, apart from saying that a cello (played in ways you won’t quite believe) is involved\, and the range of music takes the word eclectic and supercharges it to meltdown levels of energy and invention.” – Argus Courier \nSOCIAL MEDIA: \nfacebook.com/dirtycellomusic\ninstagram.com/dirtycello\ntwitter.com/dirtycello\nDirtycello.com \nShow Date\nSeptember\, 21\, 2024 \nTickets – Available Here!\nAll tickets subject to tax and fees\nGA Tickets $35 advance \nDay of Show Tickets $45 if available. \nShow Details\nDoors: 5:30pm\nMusic: 6:30pm

SUMMARY:Eli Smart – No Summer
DESCRIPTION:Eli Smart Releases No Summer to Kauai with support from Jordan Paul\nShow Date\nSaturday\, October 19 \nShow Details\n5:30 PM: Doors Open\n6:30 PM: Music \nTimes subject to change. Any changes will be confirmed via email closer to the show date * Stay updated on our Instagram @anainahou! \nEli Smart\nIn 1999\, Elijah Kai Solomon Smart was born into the City of Angels\, Sprawl and Smog. In order for Eli to grow-up surrounded by nature\, unburdened by major city modernity; Mom & Dad hauled ass to Hawaii when he was 5. With the van packed sitting on the drive\, they took one last look at their soon-to-be old house\, when a willowy man walked by playing the flute: it was Beck. \nThe Smarts settled-in on a farm on the island of Kaua’i. What happened there was magical: nature claimed its course. Under unfathomably starry skies\, the farm grew avocados. The parents grew musicians. They bought a shop from a woman who made yarn and opened Hanalei Strings; a store that sold stringed instruments and vinyl records. They built a stage in the shop (it’s still there today) and those that performed on it had been taught guitar\, ukulele or lap steel by Eli’s dad. Eli’s Mom performed with the local Hula dancers. Gigs for fundraisers\, gigs for birthdays\, gigs with mates. The community supported the music and the music supported the community. \nEli’s nan (who had built the farm they now lived on) didn’t need guitar lessons\, from anyone. She was a member of The Ace of Cups\, a trailblazing all-girl 1960s rock group who Hendrix publicly adored. Evenings on the farm ended with an after dinner jam. Three generations of musicians in harmony beneath a gobsmacking celestial canopy. Sounds idillic. \nAll of which begs the question: Why did he leave? \nThe search for answers to that question are central to Eli’s debut album: No Summer. If you’re expecting ‘Pop Surf Hits Vol. 1’ you’ve come to the wrong place: the album has a much more universal appeal. It’s as much of a travelogue as it is a long-player; on ‘Another Sundown’ and ‘How Come?’ and album close ‘Overdrive’ the emotional longing is palpable\, unhurried and given the space to deep-breathe itself back to the present. The whole album is intricately layered: there are muted drum machines\, subtle harmonies and guitar parts that appear like early morning birdsong. It sounds like nature\, interrupted. \nNo Summer is\, without question\, a psychedelic soul album; one that shares a sun-kissed poignancy with Shuggie Otis’ landmark Inspirational Information. Eli Smart is an exceptionally gifted and expressive guitarist too. It’s hard to decide if the instrument was his closest travel companion or itself a cognitive mode of transport. Such is his command of it\, changes in mood and dynamics can happen in a heartbeat. When this happens on the album\, the songs most faithfully represent the riotous stage shows which have captivated audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. Eli’s live band is staffed exclusively by good mates in good spirits: a recipe they followed for the album’s creation. The majority of the album was recorded with James Kerr in the Lewisham flat they shared together this year. Yet the songwriting spans a decade and the rude health of youth is writ large over ‘Highschool Steady\,’ ‘Jackie’ and ‘No Destination’ – all songs in the Key of Heyday. The low-slung funk of ‘Moka’ wouldn’t sound out of place if it was offered to us by that willowy passer-by. \nOver the course of the album’s 14 tracks\, No Summer captures a sepia-toned image of formative experiences: it’s a postcard from a well spent youth. It’s less ‘innocence lost’ and more ‘gained perspective.’ The questions it asks are kind. The melodies stick around long enough to become good mates. It’s gloriously low-fi\, DIY and made with friendship at its beating heart. You can take the boy out of Hawaii\, but you can’t take the Hawaii out of the man. \n\n\n\nWhat’s included\n\nTickets – Here!\nAll tickets subject to tax and fees\nGA Tickets $20.00\nDay of Show Tickets $30 if Available \nShow Details and Venue Rules\nThis show is all ages.

SUMMARY:Escher String Quartet
DESCRIPTION:The Escher String Quartet has received acclaim for its profound musical insight and rare tonal beauty. A former BBC New Generation Artist and recipient of the Avery Fisher Career Grant\, the quartet has performed at the BBC Proms at Cadogan Hall and is a regular guest at Wigmore Hall. In its home town of New York\, the ensemble serves as season artists of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center.\n\nThe 2023-2024 season finds the Escher Quartet embarking upon a major project-performances of the complete cycle of quartets by Bela Bartók\, culminating in a single concert performance of all six at the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center. The first-ever performance of all six Bartók quartets in chronological order was given by the Emerson String Quartet in March 1981\, also at Alice Tully Hall\, in honor of Bartók’s centenary year.\n\nBeyond Bartók\, the Escher’s will return to many of the illustrious music centers and organizations in America\, such as the Kennedy Center\, Philadelphia Chamber Music Society\, Phoenix Chamber Music Society\, Duke University\, Coleman Chamber Music Association\, and Savannah Music Festival\, among others.\nThe Escher Quartet has made a distinctive impression throughout Europe\, with recent debuts including the Amsterdam Concertgebouw\, Berlin Konzerthaus\, London’s Kings Place\, Slovenian Philharmonic Hall\, Les Grands Interprètes Geneva\, Tel Aviv Museum of Art\, and Auditorium du Louvre. The group has appeared at festivals such as the Heidelberg Spring Festival\, Budapest’s Franz Liszt Academy\, Dublin’s Great Music in Irish Houses\, the Risør Chamber Music Festival in Norway\, the Hong Kong International Chamber Music Festival\, and the Perth International Arts Festival in Australia. Alongside its growing European profile\, the Escher Quartet continues to flourish in its home country\, performing at the Aspen Music Festival\, Bravo! Vail\, Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival\, Bowdoin Music Festival\, Toronto Summer Music\, Chamber Music San Francisco\, Music@Menlo\, and the Ravinia and Caramoor festivals.\n\nThe 2022-2023 season saw the release of two albums – string quartets by Pierre Jalbert and the Escher’s studio recording of the complete Janacek quartets and Pavel Haas quartet no. 2 with multi award winning percussionist Colin Currie (BIS Label). Recordings of the complete Mendelssohn quartets and beloved romantic quartets of Dvorak\, Borodin and Tchaikovsky were released on the BIS label in 2015-18 and received with the highest critical acclaim\, with comments such as “…eloquent\, full-blooded playing… The four players offer a beautiful blend of individuality and accord” (BBC Music Magazine). In 2019\, DANCE\, an album of quintets with Grammy award winning guitarist Jason Vieaux\, was enthusiastically received. In 2021\, the Escher’s recording of the complete quartets of Charles Ives and Samuel Barber was met with equal excitement\, including “A fascinating snapshot of American quartets\, with a recording that is brilliantly detailed\, this is a first-rate release all around” (Strad Magazine). The quartet has also recorded the complete Zemlinsky String Quartets in two volumes\, released on the Naxos label in 2013 and 2014.\n\nBeyond the concert hall\, the Escher Quartet is proud to announce the creation of a not-for-profit organization\, ESQYRE (Escher String Quartet Youth Residency Education). ESQYRE’s mission is to provide a comprehensive educational program through music performance and instruction for people of all ages. In addition\, the quartet has held faculty positions at Southern Methodist University in Dallas\, TX and the University of Akron\, OH.\n\nWithin months of its inception in 2005\, the ensemble came to the attention of key musical figures worldwide. Championed by the Emerson Quartet\, the Escher Quartet was invited by both Pinchas Zukerman and Itzhak Perlman to be Quartet in Residence at each artist’s summer festival: the Young Artists Program at Canada’s National Arts Centre; and the Perlman Chamber Music Program on Shelter Island\, NY.\n\nThe Escher Quartet takes its name from the Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher\, inspired by Escher’s method of interplay between individual components working together to form a whole.\nThe quartet will perform for one night only on Kauai.\n\n\nAdvance Tickets: $40 Adults\, $15 Students \nSee less

This legendary band released their latest album\, Sonic Mojo\, in November 2023\, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Blues Charts and as of June 2024\, the album had remained on the charts for 27 weeks. Known for their infectious boogie rock\, Foghat continues to captivate audiences\, delivering high-energy performances that are just as thrilling today as they were in 1977 when their classic multi-platinum album\, Foghat Live\, broke them worldwide. \nFoghat’s timeless appeal spans generations. Their concerts attract Baby Boomers\, Gen X’ers\, Millennials\, and younger fans alike. Whether discovered through the video game Guitar Hero III\, the movie Dazed & Confused\, or the inclusion of “Slow Ride” in Top Gun/Maverick (2023)\, fans unite under the band’s electric energy and boogie-inducing music. \nSonic Mojo and Recent Acclaim\nFoghat’s new album\, Sonic Mojo\, has been met with widespread critical acclaim. The album showcases Bryan Bassett’s slide guitar mastery\, earning praise for its blend of blues\, rock\, and country influences. Critics highlight tracks like “She’s A Little Bit of Everything\,” “Mean Woman Blues\,” and “Drivin’ On” for their dynamic energy and exemplary guitar work (ROCK AND BLUES MUSE) (Blues Rock Review) (100% ROCK MAGAZINE) (Front Row Report). \nRock and Blues Muse commended the band’s ability to infuse new life into classic tracks while maintaining their authentic sound. Blues Rock Review rated the album 9/10\, emphasizing Bassett’s slide guitar as a standout element. 100% Rock Magazine noted the band’s seamless blend of influences and praised the precision of the guitar work. Front Row Report described Sonic Mojo as a fun and engaging album\, perfect for road trips\, and lauded it as one of the strongest records in Foghat’s extensive career. \nIn addition to Bryan Bassett’s remarkable contributions\, the reviews also highlight the stellar performances of other band members. Roger Earl’s drumming is described as dynamic and driving\, anchoring the band’s powerful rhythm section. Scott Holt’s vocals and guitar work have been praised for their energy and compatibility with the band’s classic sound. Rodney O’Quinn’s bass lines provide a solid foundation\, contributing to the album’s overall groove and feel. \nA Legacy of Music\nFoghat’s journey began in 1971 when Lonesome Dave Peverett and Roger Earl left Savoy Brown to start their own band. In 1975\, they released Fool for the City\, an album that included the hit song “Slow Ride.” This track became a huge success and is still one of the band’s most recognizable songs. The success of “Slow Ride” was followed by 1977’s Foghat Live\, a multi-platinum album that solidified their place on the worldwide music map. Over the years\, Foghat has earned eight Gold Records\, one Platinum Record\, and one Double Platinum record. Despite the inevitable ups and downs\, including the loss of beloved members Lonesome Dave (2000)\, Rod Price (2005)\, and Craig MacGregor (2018)\, the band has persevered\, driven by their love of music. \nCurrent Lineup and Enduring Spirit\nThe 2024 lineup includes founding member Roger Earl on drums\, long-time member Bryan Bassett (formerly of Molly Hatchet and Wild Cherry) on lead and slide guitar\, Rodney O’Quinn (Pat Travers Band) on bass and vocals\, and newest member Scott Holt (Buddy Guy) on lead vocals and guitar. Holt\, who previously played with Foghat side project Earl & the Agitators\, seamlessly fits into the band’s dynamic\, contributing to their ongoing legacy. \nScott Holt brings a wealth of experience and energy to Foghat. Before joining the band\, he spent ten years as the guitarist for blues legend Buddy Guy. Holt’s powerful vocals and guitar work have been described as a perfect fit for Foghat\, adding a fresh yet familiar sound to the band’s repertoire. His previous work with Earl & the Agitators provided a natural transition into Foghat\, where he continues to impress both fans and critics alike. \nRodney O’Quinn joined Foghat in 2015\, bringing his extensive background from playing with the Pat Travers Band. O’Quinn’s solid bass lines and backing vocals have been instrumental in maintaining the band’s rhythm and energy. His contributions to Sonic Mojo have been particularly noted for adding depth and groove to the band’s sound\, ensuring that Foghat’s music remains as compelling as ever. \nThe Legacy Continues\nFoghat’s success isn’t just a result of their iconic hit “Slow Ride” but a testament to their ability to continually produce great music. Sonic Mojo marks their first #1 record\, proving that the band’s boogie magic is timeless. Roger Earl\, the driving force behind Foghat\, has no plans to stop\, ensuring that this legendary band will roll ‘til they’re old and rock ‘til they drop. \nFoghat’s enduring appeal\, dynamic performances\, and dedication to their craft ensure that they remain a beloved fixture in the rock ‘n’ roll world\, continuing to create and share their music with fans old and new. \n\n\n\nWhat’s included\n\nTickets – Available Here!\nAll tickets subject to tax and fees\nGA Tickets $60.00\nDay of Show Tickets $70 if Available \nShow Details and Venue Rules\nThis show is all ages.

Monica has served on piano faculty at the historical NYC landmark Greenwich House Music School\, and Bergen Academy of Music & Art. She is Music Lecturer at Kauai Community College\, and maintains a private studio of pianists and composers. She is the Director for the Kauai Concert Association\, and is enjoying her term as President of the Hawaiʻi Music Teachers Association.\n\nPianist Jonathan Korth\, enjoys a multifaceted career as a soloist\, chamber musician\, collaborator\, and teacher. Hailed by the Des Moines Register as having “prodigious technique and keen sense of musicianship\,” Dr Korth’s sizable presence piques the audience’s attention and delivers with the satisfyingly deep and colorful sound he has become known for. Dr. Korth is a prolific concertizer\, with performances not only in Bangkok\, Beijing\, Brussels\, London\, Shanghai\, Seoul\, and Tokyo\, but also in prized stateside venues like Carnegie Hall’s Weill Hall. With the advent of the pandemic\, he’s reimagined his live performances and played/co-produced regular online concerts from the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa’s Music Department where he’s been a piano faculty member since 2008.\n\nDr. Korth’s deep appreciation and love for chamber music has led to recent partnerships with musicians such as violinists Martin Beaver and Robert McDuffie\, and cellists Zuill Bailey and Sung-Won Yang.

He has performed on concert series such as Chicago’s Dame Myra Hess Memorial Concert Series\, Honolulu Chamber Music Society\, Chamber Music Hawaii\, Maui Arts and Cultural Center\, Hawai’i Concert Society\, and the Austin Chamber Music Festival.\n\n“Jonathan Korth pushes the boundaries of the piano” (Arts Hawai’i) looking for new sound fields and techniques outside the mainstream repertoire. An advocate for the compositions of his UH colleagues Thomas Osborne\, Donald Reid Womack\, and Takuma Itoh\, he welcomes working with composers and has premiered dozens of new works.\nIt is easy to see how his enthusiasm for advancing the profession has made Dr. Korth highly sought after for master classes throughout Asia and has attracted a diverse international studio. With his encouragement\, musical influence\, and guidance\, many of his students have founded successful professional piano careers\, pursued graduate degrees at top piano programs\, and won top prizes at competitions.\n\nDr. Korth grew up in Forest City\, Iowa and is a graduate of the Peabody Conservatory (BM) where he studied with Ann Schein and Boris Slutsky and Stony Brook University (MM and DMA)\, where he was a student of Gilbert Kalish. An avid supporter of increasing access to excellent classical music\, he is the current president of the Honolulu Chamber Music Series. Grateful to have made his home in Honolulu\, Jon enjoys hiking and fine dining\, two of the most well-paired activities.

SUMMARY:An Evening with David Sedaris
DESCRIPTION:With sardonic wit and incisive social critiques\, David Sedaris has become one of America’s pre-eminent humor writers. The great skill with which he slices through cultural euphemisms and political correctness proves that Sedaris is a master of satire and one of the most observant writers addressing the human condition today.\n\nDavid Sedaris is the author of Barrel Fever and Holidays on Ice\, as well as collections of personal essays\, Naked\, Me Talk Pretty One Day\, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim\, When You Are Engulfed in Flames\, and his most recent book\, Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls\, each of which became an immediate bestseller. The audio version of Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls is a 56th Annual GRAMMY Awards Nominee for Best Spoken Word Album. He is the author of the NYT-bestselling collection of fables entitled Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk: A Modest Bestiary (with illustrations by Ian Falconer). He was also the editor of Children Playing Before a Statue of Hercules: An Anthology of Outstanding Stories. Sedaris’ pieces appear regularly in The New Yorker and have twice been included in “The Best American Essays.” There are over ten million copies of his books in print and they have been translated into 25 languages.\n\nHe and his sister\, Amy Sedaris\, have collaborated under the name “The Talent Family” and have written half-a-dozen plays which have been produced at La Mama\, Lincoln Center\, and The Drama Department in New York City. These plays include Stump the Host\, Stitches\, One Woman Shoe\, which received an Obie Award\, Incident at Cobbler’s Knob\, and The Book of Liz\, which was published in book form by Dramatists Play Service.
