Diplo.  Thomas Wesley Pentz, better known as Diplo, is one of the most dynamic forces in music today. He is as much an international brand as he is a musician/DJ/producer. He has proven himself to be a ubiquitous cultural figure, consistently bridging high and low, mainstream and underground, with remarkable tact and reverence.  Pentz received three Grammy nominations in 2016, including Producer of the Year, Best Dance Recording, and Best Dance/Electronic Album.  Diplo remains the go-to producer for a who’s who of the pop music landscape.  Ages 18+ only. Maui Arts & Cultural Center, Events Lawn, One Cameron Way, Kahului. 6 p.m. For tickets and information call (808) 242-7469 or visit http://mauiarts.org/.
