TROUBLE IS BREWING ON THE NORTH SHORE — AND IT’S RAUCOUS OF THE BEST KIND. Local band the Troublemakers, featuring Lokahi Sylva on bass and vocals, Poni Brendan on guitar and vocals and Stephan Brown on percussion and vocals, will play at The Shops at Paia Bay during the biggest street party in the bustling beach town, Paia Fourth Friday. Presented by Paia Bay Cafe and Turnbull Fine Art, the free outdoor show will get the crowd going from 6:30 to 8 p.m. And it doesn’t stop there. Paia will be stacked with art demonstrations, entertainment, giveaways, fashion, performances, sales and other specials for its Fourth Friday festivities, which is quickly generating steam amid the County of Maui’s effort to launch weekly street parties around the island. A party with DJ music, a ping-pong tournament, a fashion show and more will start at 7 p.m. at Paia Inn Hotel’s outdoor area, thanks to lululemon athletica Maui, Maui Cyclery and IMRIE; fashion show starts at 8 p.m. Thee Salon will offer music by DJ, THE KIDD and guest performances by belly dancers, a silk aerialist and other entertainment. Agua De Flora presents a performance by “The Mill,” folk/bluegrass played by talented high school students. Indigo will hold a Monster Mash with DJ music. Charley’s will feature The Kryptones and Danni Girl. For details on Paia Fourth Friday, see www.paiamaui.com.
