The most popular of all The Cedar’s annual festivals, The Slack Key Guitar Festival will this year feature four of the Islands’ best next generation slack key players: Keoki Kahumoku, Sonny Lim, Jeff Peterson, and Charles Michael Brotman with his trio Kohala, all of whom were featured in the 2005 Grammy Award–winning recording Slack Key Guitar, Volume 2. Lobby entertainment will be provided before the show and between sets by popular local band Hawaiian Sugar, adding a warm, festive air to the entire evening. TICKETS STILL AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR AS OF 7PM 2/17!
With the sound of swaying palms, rolling oceans and echoing birds, Kiho´alu (slack key) captures the magic of the Islands. Developed more than 150 years ago, slack key refers to the altered tunings of the acoustic guitar that are unique to the musical heritage of Hawai’i.
