Ken Emerson, Shem Kahawaii, & Wainani

Prepare to be captivated by the extraordinary talents of Ken Emerson, one of the world's most highly regarded traditional Hawaiian slack key and steel guitarists. Hailing from Kawai'i, Ken is a master of both instruments, who can seamlessly transition between slack key and lap steel mid-song, flipping his guitar onto his lap and playing with an incredibly light touch. This innovative 'slack/steel' style is a testament to his unique artistry and deep connection to the origins of Hawaiian guitar. 
Ken will transport you through generations of Hawaiian culture with his captivating storytelling, sharing tales that resonate with his unique blend of Blues/Jazz Hawaiian guitar perfected over 40 years. 

The evening will be expertly hosted by slack key rising star and George Kahumokuʻs protege, Shem Kahawaiʻi. 
Adding to the visual and emotional richness, the lovely Wainani Kealoha will grace the stage with her beautiful hula, bringing the stories and music to vibrant life. 
This is your chance to witness a truly unique musical performance and immerse yourself in the heart of Hawaiian tradition.
