Hello from Makawao,
GORGEOUS morning here, pretty much picture-perfect and I love it! We had a blast last week playing our six gigs in four days. Lot of great music and we have more…here’s where you’ll find Phil & Angela Benoit this week:
Thursday, May 8 (tonight) at WHALERS VILLAGE in Ka’anapali, Center Stage, from 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm. We are very excited to have L.A. based jazz guitarist Doug MacDonald join us. Check out his website: www.dougmacdonald.net. Also joining us will be Doug White on bass and Greg Marsh on drums.
Friday, May 9 at ‘AMI ‘AMI BAR & GRILL at the Maui Coast Hotel in Kihei from 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm. Once again jazz guitarist Doug MacDonald will be joining us so if you can’t catch him at Whalers Village, here’s your chance. Call 808 875 7522 to make your reservations.
Saturday, May 10 – We will NOT be at ‘AMI ‘AMI BAR & GRILL this evening as we have a private event in Haiku. We’ll resume our normal schedule there next week Saturday, May 17.
Sunday, May 11 at PITA PARADISE WAILEA from 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm. Happy Mother’s Day!…come celebrate with us.
