Josh Tatofi returns to the MACC's Castle Theater with a special holiday concert featuring both holiday favorites along with many of his popular, award-winning hits.

With the release of his first Hawaiian language single, titled Pua Kiele, Josh expressed his adoration for the language, culture and traditions of Hawaii. In 2016, Josh released a full-length Hawaiian album, also titled Pua Kiele and with it embedded his imprint in the Hawaiian music scene. Since then, Josh has earned the nickname as, “the Luther Vandross of Hawaii.” And with a significant title to bear, Josh Tatofi continues to express his soul through Hawaiian mele. 

 

In 2017, he won two Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards for the categories of Male Vocalist of the Year and Island Music Album of the Year for Pua Kiele.  He garnered a Grammy nomination in 2018 for the same album in the category of Best Regional Roots Album.
