...home for great musical offerings - jazz, bopHop! and otherwise - based in Carrboro NC, also fondly known as Paris of the Piedmont.

We've been around the block and crossed the ponds a few times and we're just getting started, folks, so come visit us in person or at this site often to check out our ever-increasing offerings. We're having great fun and we want to share it all with you...

no two gigs are the same...

There is NOTHING like music live, in the moment.  Click here for more details regarding all upcoming events, from delightful duos to hot quartets and more!

mahaloJazz: stoked for smokin' jazz!

mahaloJazz 4+ continues to hold forth on Sundays evenings at The Station at Southern Rail in Carrboro; our next visit will be on 2/12 and 2/26 at 5:00pm or so.  We LOVE playing here, it has a real comfortable vibe for everyone, with good drink and food.  Check out our brand new video slide show to hear some of the fun we had  this past December, with photos by our great friend Barbara Tyroler! Hope you'll come by and hang with us here!

mahaloJazz: bopHop!

In trio (mJ3) or quartet (mJ4) fashion, mahaloJazz takes the fabulous bebop tunes of Charlie Parker, Clifford Brown and Bud Powell (among others) and fuses them with funk/R&B/New Orleans rhythms. This music is meant for folks to be dancing to great jazz music once again! Check out our video by Beery Media!

mahaloJazz in the house!

We love doing house concerts, as performers and listeners are much more engaged with the music together.  For the magical we-put-it-together-in-nine-days concert in February 2011, we've got a video slide show, video snippet 1 and video snippet 2 (fabulous photos and video by the awesome Nic Beery).  Recordings of this performance, as well as for three of our four CottonWood Farm performances, can all be found here (scroll down to mahaloJazz 4 + more).

mahalo...
(as in "ma" like in ma and pa
"ha" rhymes with ma,
"lo" as in how low can you go)

means more than
thank you in Hawaiian;
it is an expression
of deep gratitude.
It is this spirit that serves as
the foundation for
mahaloArts.
We are inspired to embrace
with profound gratitude
our music, our art,
our livelihood,
our lives.

Our mission is to
facilitate, develop
and present
artistic endeavors of
positive, constructive,
and engaging manner
that underscore gratefulness
of being alive.
