Island Soul Session: Will Evans, Irie Love, Kuulei Music & Pohai
Island Soul Session: Ho'oilo 2026 — a night of conscious roots music with Will Evans, Irie Love, Kuulei Music & Pohai @ Aerial Arts Hawaiʻi.
Island Soul Session: Ho'oilo 2026
A Winter Gathering of Soul Conscious Roots Music
Aerial Arts Hawaiʻi · Hilo
Island Soul Session returns with an intimate winter gathering rooted in conscious music, presence, and connection.
Ho'oilo is the Hawaiian season of rain, reflection, and inward turning — a time to gather close, warm the spirit, and listen deeply. Island Soul Session: Hoʻoilo 2026 is intentionally crafted to honor that season through music that speaks to the heart, the land, and the shared human experience.
This is not a typical concert. It is a listening room — warm-lit, candlelit, and designed for people who value depth, presence, and music that says something.
The Experience
Expect soft amber lighting, candle clusters, and a room shaped for deep listening.
Island Soul Session Vol. 2 blends conscious lyrics, grounded musicianship, and the quiet magic of Hilo’s creative community.
This is music for the heart and the spirit:
slow the breath, drop in, and allow the artists to take you somewhere meaningful.
You’ll find:
- A warm-lit room made for presence
- Candle glow and soft, intentional lighting
- Thoughtfully arranged seating and open space
- Earthy acoustic textures
- Lyrics rooted in story, land, and feeling
- A conscious community gathering in one of Hilo’s most beautiful creative spaces
