Maui Concerts - Ladysmith Black Mambazo soothes the Maui crowd

One of my favorite World Music groups performed on Maui last week at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center to a nearly full house. Ladysmith Black Mambazo showed off their high steps (complete with red socks!) to the sounds of smooth voices from South Africa. Ladysmith beacame even more famous with the partnership with Paul Simon on his Graceland album a few years ago. The group was founded over 40 years ago in South Africa and has performed all over the world This was their third performance on Maui at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center.
And now to Elton John next month!

Maui Concerts - Bruno Mars packs the house and steals the show

The Maui Arts and Cultural Center was packed to the gills last week with Bruno Mars fans and he didn't disappoint with his show!Fans squealed at a pitch so high many thought windows would shatter. It was unreal that 1500 teenage girls could reach a fevered pitch that high but earplugs were the ticket that night for sure!
Hawaii born Brumo Mars was a colorful act from the start, singing his favorite hits while cameras flashed and video cameras followed his every move on stage as they shot a video.

Ever the showman, with many moves reflecting that of one of Mars' idols, Michael Jackson, the music and choreography was fun to watch. Mars has a great rapport with his band and it shows in his performances.
Another fun night for everyone!

Until the next rockin' show!
