GRAND SLAM FINALS
Thursday, May 28th
The big event is here! Every month poets compete to earn a spot in the Grand Slam. Now the top poets from the season will compete for the tittle Grand Slam Champion! You can expect powerful performances by phenomenally talented poets! This is a show not to be missed!!!
Grand Slam tickets will be $15 in advance, $20 at the door. We will be at Hawaiian Brianās, as usual. However, we will be in Crossroads, the larger venue.
In addition to incredible poetry, the show will feature three guest artists!
Ali Ross is a Filipina singer-songwriter originally from Manila. Influenced by R&B, jazz, hip-hop, and neo-soul, she brings a sultry, soulful energy to her performances. Her songs explore love, loss, and healing with honesty and vulnerability.
The incomparable DJ Wanderlust will be multitasking as usual, not only DJing, but also showcasing vocal talents. Growing up around music and musicians, she has a memorizing voice and a whole lot to say!
There will also be an original dance collaboration with musical accompaniment. Thanks to Minerva Minerbi and all the fabulous dancers who have graced the Slam stage this year!
You are invited to stay for the after party until midnight with a set from DJ Wanderlust until midnight!!!
Musical awesomeness, as always, is provided by DJ WanderLust, the best damn DJ in poetry. And, your host and MC is Liam Skilling.
The Grand Slam will be held at Crossroads in Hawaiian Brianās at 1680 Kapiolani Blvd on the second floor. Validated parking, food, and drinks!
Come check us out, to listen, to connect, or take the stage yourself. Doors and sign up at 7; show starts at 8.

Another manifestation coming to life š„¹
Last year, I watched @keilanamusic and @ajrafael perform at @filipinofiesta_hi (they were incredible and so inspiring). My momma @anne.sumangil nudged me and said, āyouāre going to be on that stage, too one day.ā
And tomorrow⦠I am!!!
Iāll be performing at my first Filipino Fiesta/Festival, and Iām so honored to be part of it alongside my good friends @darren.zuko@jehzanexclusive@don2faithful@houseofgongs all of whom I met last year through music.
See you there fellow bebots!!! And no I will not be singing Lumpia or Gago š
giving away two tickets for Rhiana Alana Lewisā single release show on May 15th at Secret Spot to whoever leaves the best pick up line in the comments!!! Iāll pick the winner this Sunday šāāļø be creative! All fun!
I genuinely enjoyed my weekend (first time in a while) š„¹ Dinner at a steakhouse with the girls, crazy drive with my bestie to waialua for my fave open mic, surf, brunch with my hanai mom, gym, grocery run, cooked, jdolans with the guys, walked around my neighborhood, became an aunt to a little kitty, and more surf. Things do get better.
