Don't miss Hawaiiʼs living legend Ledward Kaapana in his only Los Angeles appearance October 3rd at Sangria restaurant on the Hermosa Pier. Doors open at 5:30pm, Fran Guidry (Bay Area) will be opening.

Ledʼs mastery of stringed instruments, particularly slack key guitar, and his extraordinary baritone and leo ki`eki`e (falsetto) voices, have made him a musical legend. Thrilling audiences for more than 40 years with his easy-going style and kolohe (rascal) charm, Led has built a loyal corps of Led Heads from Brussels to his birthplace on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Recognition by his peers earned Led Grammy nominations in 2006, 2007 and 2009 and he has collaborated onstage with a dazzling list of musicians including Alison Krauss, Sonny Landreth, Chet Atkins, Leo Kotke, Taj Mahal, Ry Cooder and Tal Farlow to name a few. Ledʼs fret board technique and soaring vocals are unforgettable.

Tickets For Ledwardʼs performance are $20, $25, $28.Purchase online at: http://kalakoa.tix.com/.
