Roots Rhythm Foundation fundraiser at Tiki’s

The Roots Rhythm Foundation is an organization using music to initiate positive change in Hawaii.  This year, they just launched the “Plant-The-Seed” project at Palolo Valley Elementary School, which will provide musical equipment and staffing for Hawaii’s public schools.

Join them, along with Tiki’s bar and Grill for a fundraiser for this worthy cause.  This is a Taco Tuesday pau hana style party, with music from NSK’s own DJ Jami and the sounds of Blues/Reggae Fusion band FREESOUND.

This is set to go down Tuesday at Tiki’s Bar and Grill, from 5-9pm.  For more info, and to get involved with the cause, email info@rootsrhythm.org

The Lofa Below: Valentine’s Day Mixtape – Day.Nine

Matt Costa – Cold December

I had the pleasure of meeting Matt Costa a while ago at Blue Hawaii Gallery’s grand opening.  I think it was for a RVCA event.  He pulled out an impromptu concert, with himself, his guitar, and a harmonica contraption, much like Bob Dylan would rock.

He went through most of his songs, one of which was “Cold December.”  I honestly didn’t know much about this song, because I only had the “Familiar Faces” CD.

“I fail to be what you expect of me.”

An interesting thing about this song is that this came up during shuffle when I was on the train going to Seattle from Portland.  The irony definitely was not lost on me.

SuperCr3w at Prototype

Prototype welcomes America’s Best Dance Crew season 2 winners,  SuperCr3w for a special in-store appearance. They’ll be there signing autographs, answering questions about their appearance on the show and, if you got the skills, probably throwdown in a dance battle.

Anyway, they’ll be there to celebrate the release of SC3.  They’ll be there starting at 5pm on Wednesday.
