E Kani Mau Ka Pāna Ali‘i ‘O Hawai‘i

E Kani Mau Ka Pāna Ali‘i ‘O Hawai‘i

“E Kani Mau”
Ka Pāna Ali‘i ‘O Hawai‘i

From its royal beginnings in 1836, the Royal Hawaiian Band has entertained audiences in Hawai‘i and around the world for 186 years. Once known as the “King’s Band,” it was created by King Kamehameha III and became a staple of daily life by performing for state occasions, funerals, and marching in parades.
Today, the Royal Hawaiian Band is an agency of the City and County of Honolulu and is the only full-time municipal band in the United States. The band performs and marches in over 350 concerts and parades each year.
Since the onset of the pandemic, the Royal Hawaiian Band adapted to various services to the community. After losing their "musical voice", they transitioned to assisting city initiatives, such as: food distribution, surge testing, call center and vaccination support. They also transitioned to small ensembles and served as musical, healing ambassadors to the Queen's Hospital/Blaisdell Center vaccination initiative.
From March 2022, they have been serving the community in their full band capacity. The past two years have forced the Royal Hawaiian Band to remain vigilant in keeping a heart of service and resiliency on the forefront of their purpose and artistic mission. In some respects, it is very similar to what Queen Lili‘uokalani endured when going through a pandemic of her own as well as endeavoring to maintain the monarchy and her Hawaiian kingdom. A portion of the concert will be dedicated to her and her resilient spirit.
The Royal Hawaiian Band has stayed resilient through their most difficult period and it is very appropriate to celebrate with the community in a formal concert at Hawai‘i Theatre. They will be partnering with some of Hawai‘i's finest artists, to include: Amy Hānaiali‘i Gilliom, Nathan Aweau, Keauhou, Karen Keawehawai‘i, Danny Kaleikini, Kimo Kahonano, Makanani Salā, Andria Tupola, August Tulba, Malia Ka‘ai, Kala‘i Stern, Michael-Thomas Foumai, Kamehameha Schools Children's Chorus, Hālau Ka Lā ‘Ōnohi Mai O Haʻeha‘e, Kanani Oliveira, Ku‘ulei Hazelwood and others.

BĀS BOOKSHOP and HOMEY HI: Film Screening & Live Performance by FUNGI QUEEN

An intimate night at Chinatowns BĀS Bookshop

Screening of Fantastic Fungi, a descriptive time-lapse journey about the magical, mysterious and medicinal world of fungi and their power to heal, sustain and contribute to the regeneration of life on Earth that began 3.5 billion years ago. In the Kingdom of Fungi, stands a community that feeds you, heals you, and reveals nature's mystery.

The event will follow with a live performance by a local rock band, Fungi Queen.

Fungi Queen is a band from Oahu that was started by Koa Yokota (guitar/vocals/bass), Ben Robinson (drums/vocals/guitar), and Kainalu Kolivas(bass/vocals/drums) in October of 2020. Chloe Koizumi (vocals/keyboards) joined around the time the band was recording their first EP and Zach Kaplan (Drums) shortly after. Fungi Queen pulls from many different influences such as punk, psychedelic rock, garage, surf rock, post punk, reggae etc. Recently the band has released their single Flowers and is in the process of finishing their first full album to be released by early 2022. This band is one to experience live, with a keen presence of magical vibrancy both in the range of sounds and in each members performance as they switch up instruments and take stage across venues and cozy backyards of Hawaii.
