On Saturday, May 28, John Cruz takes the stage at Kahilu Theatre to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the release of his iconic album, ‘Acoustic Soul.’ John will play every song on the album - bringing the record and era to life with stories and special, musical guests.

Join us for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to revel in the soulful energy of one of the best selling Hawaii albums of all-time and the artist who created it. ‘Island Style,’ ‘Shine On,’ ‘Sitting In Limbo’ and many more favorites - Hawaii anthems and the soundtrack to so many of our lives, the songs and memories await.

“A new experience after all these years! Playing every song from ‘Acoustic Soul’ at one concert for the first time ever,” shares John. “This album changed my life and the late ‘90s were chock full of amazing, joy-filled times. Looking forward to marking 25 years since the album’s release - singing these songs and reconnecting with friends and fans. So happy and lucky to be able to do this tour now.”
