Description

Three Masters of Hawaiian Music come together to bring listeners an evening of Hawaii’s lilting and lovely folk styles. With origins in Hawaiian paniolo (cowboy) history and culture, master slack key guitarist George Kahumoku Jr., multi-instrumentalist Nathan Aweau, and guitarist Jeff Peterson celebrate the roots and evolution of slack key guitar, from its beginnings among Hawai‘i’s cowboys into one of the world’s most distinctive guitar styles. Known as “Hawai‘i’s Renaissance Man,” Kahumoku is a four-time Grammy and multiple Na Hōkū Award winner that loves the full sound and lower bass tones from his jumbo 12-string. Peterson is known for his development of a unique and transcendent voice on the guitar while being deeply rooted in the traditions of his Hawaiian heritage. He was first introduced to the rich history of Hawaiian music by his father, a paniolo on the Haleakala Ranch. With the addition of Aweau, his musical versatility and gorgeous vocals, the trio will share and celebrate their long-established love for Hawaiian culture and music.
