Waves of the Same Sea: The Making of Adios Ke Aloha captures an extraordinary recording session that reunites Mexican and Hawaiian musical traditions forged nearly two hundred years ago. Venerable music legends Taj Mahal, David Hidalgo (of Los Lobos), Hawaiian masters Gary Haleamau and Sonny Lim explore their deep cultural connections with Mexican American folk revival group Los Cenzontles. Mixing Hawaiian slack key guitars and lap steel with Mexican harp, accordion and jaranas, old and new songs are sung in Hawaiian, English, and Spanish. Directed by Chris Brown, the film depicts intimate performances and warm camaraderie that celebrate the enduring legacy, and Mexican roots, of the paniolo—the Hawaiian cowboy. with opening LIVE MUSIC from LOS CENZONTLES DOORS at 6:30 PM MUSIC at 7:00 PM FILM at 7:45 PM $16 ADV | $18 DOOR
