Get ready to boogie down when Kauai Voices sings the 70s! Celebrating the decade's diverse music, Kauai Voices the islands highly popular 50+member auditioned choral ensemble will present concerts in venues across the island over two weekends: June 15 and 16 in Lihue, June 22 in Kilauea and June 23 in Waimea.
In the 70s, heavy metal rock and disco were born, which along with the diverse genres of funk, Motown, jazz, smooth jazz, soft rock, R & B, soul and pop became all the rage. Karaoke got started, 8-track and cassette players fought for supremacy and portable synthesizers were common in music performances. And in 1979, with the debut of the Sony Walkman, we could carry our music anywhere! Leonard noted. This season Kauai Voices will sing some of the 70s greatest hits in all the beloved genres of the decade. Disco comes alive with Boogie Fever, Funky Town, I Will Survive, Boogie Wonderland, You Should Be Dancing, and the legendary Village People hit Y.M.C.A.! Audiences can take the drive down memory lane with these and many other great songs with the choice of four performances, which will be held over two weekends in June. Lihue shows will be held at the Kauai Community College Performing Arts Center on Saturday, June 15 at 7 PM and Sunday, June 16 at 3 PM. The following weekend, concerts will be held in Kilauea at Anaina Hou Porter Pavilion on Saturday, June 22 at 6 PM, as well as in Waimea at the historic Waimea Theatre on Sunday, June 23 at 3 PM.
