Concerts at The Shops Presents Multi-Award Winner Henry Kapono on April 18 Between Shopping and Dining, Enjoy a Live Performance of Hawaiian Rock Music

Wailea, Maui, Hawaii – (March 26, 2018) Concerts at The Shops returns on Wednesday, April 18 from 5:30 - 7pm to feature multi-awarded singer/songwriter Henry Kapono. Guests will be treated to Kapono’s upbeat, rock infused Ha-waiian music.

An all-around artist (musician, composer, author, producer, and actor), Kapono has garnered a Grammy nomination as well as 14 Na Hoku Hanohano awards for his music. His awards include Male Vocalist of the Year, Song of the Year, Rock Album of the Year, and just last year along with Cruz and Brother Noland, Best Electronic Press Kit for his Rough Riders “We Ride” CD.

Born and raised in Kapahulu, Kapono first gained popularity with the Cecilio & Kapono duo in the ‘70s, becoming the first Hawaii group to achieve a national recording contract with Columbia Records. In 1981, Kapono rose to even more fame after launching his solo career that resulted in 18 albums. Most recently, he has been touring the West Coast of the United States, regaling fans with his favorite hits.

His music, vibrant and full of energy, is a celebration in itself, reverberating with the joy of being alive. Says Kapono, “If my music makes you dance then do it. If it makes you sing then sing it. If it makes you want to know more about Hawaii’s culture then….Welcome To My Paradise!”

Concerts at The Shops is a free, monthly concert series that is open to the public and features headlining musicians from all the Hawaiian Islands. This music event occurs on the third and fifth Wednesday of every month from 5:30 to 7pm with performances at the main Fountain Courtyard.
