Halekulani Introduces New Jazz Concert Series: Live at Lewers
Featuring intimate, live musical performances with locally and internationally recognized talent, Live at Lewers perfectly complements the lounge's sophisticated ambiance and inventive selection of cocktails.

The Live at Lewers performance schedule is:

Jack Jones – November 15-16, 2013

Jack Jones is a two-time Grammy Award winning American jazz and pop singer whose work has been highly regarded among the likes of Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett and Judy Garland, who called him “the best jazz singer in the world.” Since gaining fame in the 1960s, Jones continues to perform around the world. Some of Jones' best-known recordings include "I Can't Believe I'm Losing You”, "L.A. Break Down", "The Way That I Live", "Wives and Lovers" (1964 Grammy Award, Best Pop Male Performance), "The Race Is On", "Lollipops and Roses" (1962, Grammy Award, Best Pop Male Performance), "The Impossible Dream", "Lady", "What I Did for Love", and "The Love Boat Theme."

Robert Cazimero – February 21-22, 2014

As one of the most respected hula teachers and dancers in Hawaii, Robert Cazimero – along with his brother Roland- has played an essential role in the evolution of modern Hawaiian music. More than a quarter of a century after their debut concerts, The Cazimero Brothers continue to be one of the Island's favored acts and have toured throughout the world. Robert will be presenting songs, arranged by Matt Catingub, from The Great American Songbook.

The Great American Songbook is a canon of the most important and most influential American popular songs of the 20th century, principally from Broadway theatre, musical theatre, and Hollywood musical film, from the 1920s through the 1950s. This is a not-to-be-missed concert with a familiar voice reaching outside his normal repertoire.

Tierney Sutton – April 18-19, 2014

For the past 20 years, Tierney Sutton has fronted the Tierney Sutton Band, featuring pianist Christian Jacob, bassists Trey Henry and Kevin Axt, and drummer Ray Brinker. Touring throughout the world, the Tierney Sutton Band has headlined at Carnegie Hall, The Hollywood Bowl and Jazz at Lincoln Center, and its CDs have consistently topped the U.S. jazz radio charts. A three-time Grammy nominee for “Best Jazz Vocal Album,” Sutton was Jazzweek's Vocalist of the Year, received the LA Jazz Society's Vocalist Award, and has been at the top of critics and listener's polls. Tierney can also be heard on film and television soundtracks including the Academy Award-nominated film The Cooler.
