New Zealand singer-songwriter Maisey Rika will perform at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center’s McCoy Studio Theater on Saturday, Jan. 17, beginning at 7:30 p.m.

Rika began singing professionally at 13, finding national stardom with her debut release of traditional Maori songs. Now with four albums in her repertoire and significant international touring credentials (she just opened for John Legend and India Arie), this soulful, double-platinum songstress brings her music and heritage to Maui for a one-night performance of tingling vocals and Maori fusion.

Hawane Rios will be the opening act.

Tickets are $25 and $35, and may be purchased by calling The MACC Box Office at 242-SHOW (7469) or online at MauiArts.org.

The concert is presented by Island Soul Entertainment.
