Aloha Everywhere Concert Series Presents Mark Yamanaka - Kūpaoa – Hōkū Zuttermeister + Hula

The Aloha Everywhere Concert Series presented by Hawaiian Island Creations (HIC) Lifestyle returns to the Downey Theatre on Saturday May 18 at 7pm bringing the best in Hawaiian music to Los Angeles with multiple Nā Hōkū Hanohano (Stars of Distinction) award winners Kūpaoa Mark Yamanaka and Hōkū Zuttermeister along with hula by Hālau Nā Mamo O Panaʻewa under the direction of Kumu Hula Chase Keoki Wang (Glendale CA); Kumu Hula Rona Koe from Hālau Hula O Pualaninaʻaualiʻioha (Ventura CA); and Kumu Hula Tiffanie Zuttermeister from Hālau Kaleihōkū Kūikanani (Las Vegas NV).

Spend an evening enjoying the musical spirit of the Hawaiian Islands and its welcoming aloha culture. With over 30 Nā Hōkū Hanohano awards (Hawaii’s premiere music awards considered to be the equivalent to the Grammy awards) between these three powerhouse music groups these great friends came together last year to contribute to a compilation album entitled Kalama O Kauaʻi: The Songs of Nathan Kalama Volume 1. Hawaiian music is a unique combination of storytelling and instrumental music used to preserve history while honoring the land and those who came before us. Though the three artists have all performed in Southern California on their own this will be the first time that they are coming together to share the stage.
