Island style

🌺🎶 Last night at the PA club, we experienced an uplifting performance by none other than the Grammy-Award-winning Hawaiian legend, John Cruz! 🎤✨

In an intimate setting, we were privileged to witness John Cruz truly in his element – performing live in a premier listening room where you could see, hear, and feel every note. It was a night filled with the spirit of "Island Style," as he shared the Hawaiian way of life, echoing the seminal words of his timeless hit song.

John took us on a musical journey "from the mountain to the ocean," and along the way, he talked story about his Hawaiian heritage, his beloved family, and his son Zane. The crowd felt like an extended family, sharing in his stories and songs that touched the heart and soul.

His setlist was a beautiful blend of songs, including a poignant rendition of Van Morrison's "The Water," which carried even more weight in light of the recent Maui fires, referencing the lack of this precious resource. He wove his own masterpieces into the night, with "One of These Days" being a particular highlight. And of course, he paid homage to the great Bob Marley, leaving the audience swaying to the rhythms of reggae.

What truly stood out was John Cruz's energy and the power of his voice, which told stories through each song. But this show was more than just music; it was a fundraiser for the Maui fires. John, together with his family, is generously donating their land and resources to adolescents in need of a holistic environment and wellness. The show collected funds for the @halepule John's foundation, ensuring that the spirit of aloha continues to flourish in times of adversity.

As John Cruz serenaded us with his melodies and shared his heartfelt stories, we were reminded of the beauty of Hawaiian culture, family bonds, and the importance of giving back. Last night was not just a concert; it was an experience that left our hearts full and our spirits uplifted. 🌴🌟#JohnCruz #IslandStyle #MauiFires #Fundraiser #HalePuleFoundation
