The Pacific Trades

The Pacific Trades is an a capella quartet who sings an entertaining mix of tight barbershop harmony, toe-tapping doo-wop, cool jazz and smooth love ballads. Hailing from the Sounds of Aloha Chorus, the quartet formed in 1999 for a performance in the chorus' annual show and have been performing for audiences ever since. Their flexibility with many musical styles provides a fund and entertaining variety for audiences of all kinds, which include Christmas parties, weddings, shopping malls and birthday parties. The sky's the limit! The quartet members are Jordan Wong (tenor), Ken Foreman (baritone), Robert Ing (lead), and Phillip Wee (bass). For booking information, contact Phillip Wee at 737-3960.


Tropic Nights

Tropical Nights, formed in 2005, brings over seventy-five years of barbershop to the stage (most of them belonging to Rob!). The quartet consist of Mike Darcey (tenor), F. Scott Nessler (lead), Rob Hartley (bass), and Tim Hopkins (bari). All are active members of the Sounds of Aloha Chorus, and enjoy singing to escape their more mundane professions such as pole vault salesman, and Labrador Retriever retriever at a local kennel. The quartet's fun was abruptly interrupted last year when Scott found himself in Afghanistan. He returned eight months later, after a vain attempt at finding the Afghan Navy. He also noted that there was little interest from the Afghan Olympic team for pole vaulting supplies. The quartet members thought it innappropriate to mention that they are available for hire (prior engagements includ Farrell's, Ward Center, Hawaii Theatre, Pacific Club, and numerous private organizations). Contact Mike Darcey at tropicalnight@gmail.com.
