Bobby Alu 8pm
One of reggae music’s rising stars. Born and raised in Oahu, Hawaii to a musical family that spans generations, Mike Love brings a multitude of influences to the table, all tied together by the common goal of making the world a better place. His songs take you on a journey, one of healing and inspiration. One designed to help you on your path to knowledge, wisdom and understanding. On “Permanent Holiday” he takes you on a lyrical quest for freedom, both his and yours. He laments the ills of the world but also discusses solutions and ideas to change them.
Mike draws on a multitude of infuences, including reggae, folk, blues, flamenco, jazz and R&B to create a style uniquely his own. His live show uses a fair share of technology, including live looping, effects pedals and a hybrid acoutic/electric drum kit (played by drummer, Sam Ites) but remains organic and real. Nothing is pre-recorded, everything is performed and recorded on the spot, which keeps longtime fans returning, as the show constantly evolves.
Bobby Alu is an award-winning songwriter and effortless baritone ukulele strummer with a smooth and silky voice that slides past a warm smile. He plays drums like an animal and lives a life of sharing his passion and talent; for the last seven years Bobby has groomed his hammock music style touring the world. This is a truly unique performance offering a fresh sound powered by Pacific beats, catchy songs and powerful log drumming, with hints of soul and reggae to make you groove.
