Just saw Barefoot Natives last night here on Kaua`i -- awesome show, by these two (Willie K & Eric Gilliom) musicians (plus bassist & drummer).
Lots of great guitar work, lots of laughs...and music that ranged from traditional Hawaiian, to "covers" of George Harrison and others, to some pounding rock, to some opera (yes!), and beyond. Eric gives Willie a run for his money, both with the music _and_ the comedy.
They got two standing ovation hana hou bids -- for the first one, they came back and did two numbers. But for the second one (we'd already headed up the aisle...) they did about 4 more. Quite a night!
They're heading for CA & OR -- get your tickets now (if available): July 9 - Humphrey's - San Diego CA (plus Hapa & Led Kaapana) July 10 - SOHO - Santa Barbara CA July 11 - Temple Bar - Santa Monica CA July 12 - Luna - Eugene OR July 13 - Alladin Theater - Portland OR (plus Led Kaapana) July 14 - Villa Montalvo - Saratoga CA (plus Hapa) July 15 - Borders - Sacramento CA (free) July 15 - Constable Jack's - Newcastle CA July 16 - Rancho Nicasio - Nicasio CA
