Today from 1 to 3pm 💫❤

Soul Cafe has a surprise guest serenading us today for Sunday lunch!

We're grateful and excited to welcome Elele Tiana,

"Growing up in a multi-generational musical family, as a five year old I began with the piano, guitar and bass. My favorite part was singing harmonies with my cousins. My styles range from Island & Roots Reggae to Soulful Singer Songwriter & Conscious progressive lyrics.

Sometimes I play just acoustic ukulele and sing. Other times I do a looper set where I live loope Ukulele, Bass, harmonies and beat boxing to create a full band feel. I play mostly original dancable Reggae songs with hip hop flare, but also known to drop some covers and traditional Hawaiian o'lelo song or cover a Marley!"

Come and enjoy her Soulful offering between 1-3 today. 🙏

You do not want to miss this show! This Sunday get ready to stomp your feet, laugh, cry, and hear sounds you've never heard before with Medusa. Wielding a sound that would turn classical music scholars to stone, these four folk musicians are reimagining the string quartet. By inviting back voices previously regarded as too ugly for “polite society,” Medusa tempts us to redefine what is beautiful.
Show is at 6pm. Call today for tickets and dinner reservations! 360-705-2819
$25 / $18 for students & those w/low income
