Father’s day is fast approaching and weekend events are vying for dad’s attention. Why not give him something nice and take him to the Four Fathers, Four Son’s slack key concert at the MACC?

On June 18, the McCoy Theatre at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center will present four very musical families with: Dennis & David Kamakahi, George & Keoki Kahumoku, Kevin & Ikaika Brown and Richard & Kai Ho‘opi‘i.

The night will begin with sweet father and son playtime on stage, as each family entertains with their signatures styles in slack key guitar, falsetto, ukulele, and melodic harmonies.

Then the night will turn into an inevitable competition, as fathers and sons have a play off for audience applause and popularity. The concert begins at 7:30 p.m. and tickets will are $25. VIP tickets are $45 and include a talk-story session with the musical men.
