America

Maui

Sunday, August 6: 
America.
The power and poignancy of America’s musical imagery catapulted the group to the top of the charts in the 70s. Of America’s albums, six have been certified gold and/or platinum, and their top tunes, which include A Horse With No Name,”  I Need You”,  Don’t Cross the River,” “Tin Man,”  “Lonely People,”  and “Sister Golden Hair,” were cornerstones of 1970s Top 40 and FM rock radio. From effects-laden rockers to soul-bearing ballads, America incorporates a flawless blend of disparate genres and styles, as wide open as the great American plains. Maui Arts & Cultural Center, Castle Theater, 1 Cameron Way, Kahului.  7:30 p.m.  For tickets and information call (808) 242-7469 or visit http://mauiarts.org.
