Sunday, May 20, 2012

MEET from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.

JAM from 1:00-4:00 p.m.

The Bluegrass Hawaii General Membership Meeting will be held from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm. at the rectory of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church, 1679 California Avenue in Wahiawa. Here's the chance for you to become involved and meet our new board members! Please join us and take a moment to thank them:




ANDY CHAR
I play guitar and mandolin, and am trying to learn fiddle. I have a fair amount of experience serving on non-profit boards (Honolulu Chamber Music Series and kids' swim club), and have helped organize fund-raising events and concerts. When I grow up, I want to play in a bluegrass band; until then, I'm keeping my day job as a corporate lawyer.






JUSTIN MURATA
Hi, I'm Justin Murata. Over the past several years, Bluegrass Hawaii has helped me to be a better musician, introduced me to many new friends and provided an innumerable number of super-fun experiences. I thought it was time to give a little back I look forward to working with Bluegrass Hawaii and promoting the biannual party that is Bluegrass in the Ko'olaus.






CHARLIE ROSARIO
I've been playing the guitar for 43 years, a professional at age 14. I've loved bluegrass music for as long as I can remember! I currently play in a band with Steve Ryan and John Oliver (formerly known as Fields of Fire) on the Big Island of Hawaii. I have a wide variety of skills that could be put to good use as a board member. I look forward to serving you!

Afterwards, come on out or stay for the FREE jam from 1:00-4:00 p.m. Be prepared to have a wonderful time, making music with your friends and neighbors.

All who enjoy acoustic bluegrass, newgrass, mountain, roots, traditional country, Hawaiian, Americana, folk, Western, Celtic, and Irish music, are welcome to come and jam or sing or clap along! Musicians of all skill levels are welcome to attend with their acoustic stringed instruments; the event is FREE to all and open to the public.

BRING YOUR INSTRUMENTS, a potluck dish, BYOB (please be reasonable and responsible), and maybe even a sweater. This is Wahiawa, after all, and it gets down right chilly.

Our next monthly jam will be held at Waimea Valley on June 24th! This will be a new and wonderful location for us. Please check back here for more details! Click HERE for more information about the valley.
