Leftover Salmon – High Country Kauaʻi

LEFTOVER SALMON RETURNS FOR THEIR YEARLY ISLAND PARTY WITH A WHOLE NEW SET OF FRIENDS

Join us for three days of high-vibe string-driven celebration as Leftover Salmon brings their High Country Kaua‘i festival back to The Porter Pavilion at Anaina Hou Community Park. Known for their raucous blend of bluegrass, rock, Cajun zydeco, and Colorado soul, Leftover Salmon’s yearly island gathering has become a must-experience event on the North Shore.

This year’s lineup is bigger than ever, with very special guests joining the party including the King of Telluride himself Sam Bush, pianist and improvisational powerhouse Holly Bowling, rising local favorites Beya and Kapali Long, and the twin fiddle fireworks of Jason Carter and Bronwyn Keith-Hynes.

We’ll continue our beloved tradition of the Sunday Pick on the Lawn, a special afternoon matinee filled with acoustic sets, spontaneous collaborations, and breezy vibes beneath the Kilauea sun. New this year: TWO Bluegrass Brunches with Pacific Northwest roots trio The PineHearts, serving up hot licks and coffee kicks Saturday and Sunday with Sunday featuring a very special acoustic Mac Miller set performed by Andy Thorn.

These shows aren’t just a jam—they’re a celebration of community, culture, and the unmistakable magic of Kaua‘i. All proceeds support the nonprofit mission of Anaina Hou with a portion of proceeds dedicated to our Youth Programs Scholarship Program, ensuring Porter Pavilion remains a thriving space for music, art, and aloha.
