Singer-guitarist Jarret Roback will perform at Lahaina Restoration Foundation’s free Hawaiian Music Series concert on Thursday, July 28, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in front of the Baldwin Home Museum at the corner of Dickenson and Front Streets in Lahaina.

Roback is well-known on Maui as a firefighter. His father was a policeman and musician, so Roback followed his father’s footsteps into civil service and music.

He has been with the Maui Fire Department for over 26 years and entertaining for more than 20 years at various TS Restaurants in West Maui and at Monkeypod Kitchen in Wailea since its opening in 2011.

His time spent in the Maui music scene has seen him partnering with some of the finest musicians in Hawai‘i—John and Ernie Cruz Jr., Sistah Robi Kahakalau and Lehua Kalima.

He currently performs with Joshua Kahula. Guitarist Alan Villaren will accompany Jarret on July 28.

Limited seating is available; blankets, mats and low beach chairs are welcome.

This ongoing Hawaiian Music Series program is sponsored by Hawai‘i Tourism Authority, the County of Maui Office of Economic Development and The Outlets of Maui with support from KPOA-FM.
