John Cruz, the Grammy winning guitarist and songwriter from Honolulu, is making a stop in Bend this week, playing the Silver Moon Brewing Co. on Wednesday night.

Cruz, known for his upbeat, island-inspired songs, raked in a Grammy in 2005, but was enormously popular in Hawaii and beyond  long before that. This show is his first appearance in Oregon in some time and following the show, Cruz will head down to LA where he’ll play a pre-Grammy show featuring other Hawaiian artists.

The show starts at 8pm and tickets can be purchased at Bendticket.com.
