Brother Noland – His Songs, His Stories, His Style.
  Brother Noland has deeply influenced contemporary Hawaiian music and is widely considered as the “Father of Jawaiian Music.” Fluid in both slack key and standard guitar tunings, Brother Noland goes wherever the music carries him. Brother Noland is popular for his unique interpretations of songs, yet remains respectful of traditional Hawaiian music and culture. Noland is most famous for his original song, “Coconut Girl,” which birthed the “Jawaiian” contemporary style music. He has won numerous Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards, including Best Reggae Album, and his music is featured in several movies, including “Pineapple Express” and “Snakes on a Plane.” He is regularly featured in Slack Key Guitar festivals around the islands. Brother Noland is an impactful player and one of Hawai`i’s most respected artists. Maui Arts & Cultural Center, One Cameron Way, Kahului.  7:30 p.m.  For tickets and information call (808) 242-7469 or visit http://www.mauiarts.org/.
