Indigo Bistro
presents Brittni Paiva
The day after the Minden festival, Brittni
performs her intimate solo concert during Sunday Brunch
at Indigo Bistro. Affectionately called Hawaii's ukulele
darling and slack key supergirl for her remarkable instrumental
proficiency, Brittni walked away with the 2005 Na Hoku Hanohano “Most
Promising Artist Award” at
the age of 16 for her debut recording, Brittni X 3 in which
she played all three parts—ukulele, guitar and bass. Now
20 with multiple awards under tow, Miss Paiva is a delight to
behold in concert.
With special
guest Dominator, (the uke world's best friend with
his wonderful UkeTabs
site.)

Comma Coffee
presents Laurence Juber
Although originally known for his time spent
alongside Sir Paul McCartney in Wings, LJ has become one
of the preeminent guitarists on the planet on his own. A
double Grammy winner, his musicianship can be heard in numerous
movies and TV shows. His concerts are something to behold,
offering a mix of Beatles and Wings classics, Harold Arlen
standards, and original compositions that are as fresh and
melodic as the well known tunes. His previous appearances
at Comma Coffee have been early sellouts and although this
posting is quite early, I wouldn't wait too long to get your
tickets! |
