In addition to the Oahu show, the Kokua Festival is again coming to Maui on Apr. 19th, 2006 to the Maui Arts and Cultural Center (MACC) at the A&B Amphitheater in Kahului, Maui.
Jack will be joined on stage by country music legend Willie Nelson with his jam-band The Planetary Bandits, folk musician Ben Harper, local ambassador of aloha Henry Kapono, new Hawaiian reggae talent Paula Fuga with her high energy funk band ALO.
