Sydney, AUSTRALIA — Richard Parker fans in Hawaii can expect some great music from the Australian-based musician next month, and he is also planning a South Pacific concert which will also see him perform in Samoa.

It’s Parker’s first concert in the U.S. state, and he is excited and anxious about having to perform in front of his fans. 

To be held at Turtle Bay Resort on August 2 and Artistry Club Honolulu on August 3, special guests include rapper, Tonny Alesana, singer, Revival Nona, one and only MC from Sydney, Dr. Tua, and Honolulu band, “Penina ole Tiafau” to perform during the second concert at Artistry Club.

“I have just completed my Melbourne show recently; with all my concerts I like to organise them stress free. But all I can say about this one is that it has not been easy preparing for these two concerts in Honolulu, years and years of negotiating with people from the U.S without any of them coming through with legitimate deals and offers. 

“Without the help of Dennis Mataia and Burt Kawasaki I would not have managed to pull through and secure the two shows. I know how long my fans in Hawaii have been waiting to see me live; they are the only reason why I am motivated and excited to do this show.”

He said what he wants to get out of this concert is just to see the Samoan community of Hawaii enjoy themselves. 

“Although I had put a lot of money and time into my shows, I want them to know I appreciate their support and would fly around the world to put on a show for them.

"I am hoping for the next concerts to be in Australia and New Zealand before the end of the year.”
