Tavana returns to Hyatt Centric Waikiki Beach this Friday, June 29th for a special edition of his weekly ‘Soul Sessions’ residency. After spending last weekend performing on the east coast at Wanderlust Stratton, Tavana’s got the summer buzz and is amped to take it to 11 at this Friday’s ‘Summer Celebration’ in Waikiki.

Tavana will perform from 6:30-8:30 p.m. and feature guitar wizard Zach Gray as well as the wickedly good jazz saxophonist Jabari Prevost. The wading pool and hot tub are open throughout the night. After the show, there will be a summer fashion show and prize giveaways including round-trip inter-island airfare for two! To enter, simply walk in the door at Hyatt Centric this Friday between 6pm and 8:30pm. Every attendee 18 and over gets one entry and bonus entries will be awarded for showing off your best summer attire and spirit. 

At 9 p.m., a Silent Disco takes over The Lanai at Hyatt Centric featuring mix masters DJ Mr. Nick and Jerome James, plus a Cosmic Playlist (three streams for listeners to choose from).

Admission is FREE and valet/self-parking is also FREE with $25 food and/or beverage purchase! $15 rental fee for Silent Disco headphones.

Summer is officially here. Time to kick it into High Gear with Tavana this Friday!!

dj mr. nick
dj mr. nick (aka Nicholas Yee - host of Hawaii Public Radio's 'Bridging the Gap' music program (9pm-12am Monday thru Thursday)) has firmly established himself as a premier conduit to both 'must hear' off-the-beaten path recordings and live beats that compel immediate dancing. Famed for taking listeners on globe-trotting romps, dj mr. nick is sure to elicit summer bliss while trapezing across exotic locales near and far.

Jerome James
​Jerome is the eldest son of legendary jazz drummer Chuck James of Waipio and has performed with various artists and bands including Cecilio & Kapono, Azure McCall and Tennyson Stephens. After attending Hawaii Pacific University on a music scholarship, Jerome headed to Cuba and immersed himself in the island’s rich musical culture learning its many facets of percussion.

An Oahu resident once again for the past 10+ years, Jerome performs with a wide range of bands including his own Activ8 Electro Jazz and Ordinary Magic while also often taking the helm as DJ including at Taimane’s ‘Elemental’ CD release party before a crowd of over 600 at Hyatt Centric.​

I have always wanted to go to Honolulu, Hawaii and visit the Hyatt Centric Waikiki Beach. I was really saddened when I read this post because I really want to watch my favorite singers to perform live as of that time, but I do not have a money to provide for it. But it is different now since I have a stable work and can provide for myself and my family. Currently, I have money to travel to Honolulu, Hawaii and be an audience to Tavana 'Soul Sessions.' But I am hoping that you will feature the same artists that were featured on this day. I hope to see and watch them perform live.

The quality is good, no as good as some of the other stuff out there but it’s decent enough to share some music or a funny video
