Kolohe Kai, one of Hawaiʻi's most streamed reggae artist of the past decade, will perform live in concert with special guests Matisyahu and Cydeways on Saturday, Sept. 30, 2023 at 6 p.m. The show will be outdoors in the Yokouchi Pavilion and A&B Amphitheater at the Maui Arts & Cultural Center in Kahului. Gates open at 5 p.m.

The project of O‘ahu born and raised singer/songwriter Roman De Peralta, Kolohe Kai has produced 10 island reggae hits since signing a record deal at age 17. His sound infuses the localism of ‘ukulele music with rhythms of roots reggae, and more recently pop and R&B—pushing Kolohe Kai into an elevated tier of Island Reggae.

Matisyahu first started touring in packed clubs more than 11 years ago, prior to the release of Live at Stubbs, the now Gold record, and prior to that record’s single King without a Crown reaching No. 1 on the alternative rock radio charts. His performances were a raw expression of his spirituality at that time and were supported by musicians who played a foundation of roots reggae.

Food and beverages will be available for purchase from 5-10 p.m. on the A&B Amphitheater lawn. 

The concert is A BAMP production.
