The Nā Mele Makana Slack Key Concert Series, hosted by Grammy-winner George Kahumoku, features special guest Martin Pahinui along with Brad Bordessa and Anuhea Lim for an evening of traditional and contemporary Hawaiian music at the Honoka‘a People’s Theatre, 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 15.
Known as Hawai‘i’s Renaissance Man, Kahumoku is a farmer, author, visual artist and bronze sculptor, as well as an award-winning performer with a down-home style. Add in the slack key styling and voice of Martin Pahinui and audiences will hear some of the best music Hawai‘i has to offer, said a release for the event.
