Four-time Grammy-winner, master slack key guitarist George Kahumoku Jr. is known as “Hawai‘i’s Renaissance Man.” He is a vocalist, storyteller, songwriter, author, world-traveling performer, teacher, artist and sculptor, farmer, and chef. In addition to his Grammy Awards, he is also a multiple Na Hōkū Hanohano (Hawaiian Grammy) Award winner. He is the producer and star of the weekly Slack Key Show® on Maui, now in its second decade. George’s “Masters of Hawaiian Music” showcases the artistry of kī-hō‘alu (slack key guitar), the distinctly Hawaiian style of open tunings. Guitarists Jeff Peterson and Sonny Lim join George on this tour to share beautiful music, good humor, Hawaiian cultural knowledge, and the down-home spirit of the islands.
