On the Grid — 6/10/15
JUN. 11 THUR
ERIN SMITH ALBUM RELEASE PARTY
AT THE REPUBLIK
Erin Smith celebrates the release of her album American Boy. Compared to the likes of Florence and the Machine and Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Smith’s got powerfully nuanced vocals that you can hear in songs like Love Long Distance, her first single from the new album. It’s been playing on Star 101.9, and you also can check it out online and on iTunes. The celebration starts at 7 p.m., and tickets cost $15, with a $5 increase the day of the show. jointherepublik.com
TRITONAL
AT THE REPUBLIK
Technically, Tritonal is playing two shows at The Republik — but the June 12 show has long since sold out. So this is your last chance to catch DJs Chad Cisneros and David Reed. The night is set to start at 10 p.m. Contact for ticket prices. bampproject.com
JUN. 13 SAT
CAPONES COMEDY SMASH 4

DeRay Davis, Luenell, Red Grant and Arden Myrin go head-to-head in the night that promises a “battle of the sexes.” The night begins at 8 p.m., and ticket prices start at $35. blaisdellcenter.com
JUN. 14 SUN
SUNDAY BRUNCH
AT COOKSPACE HAWAII
Do not miss this brunch! Vintage Cave executive chef Jonathan Mizukami leads a session that begins with a coffee tasting. Then, he’ll demonstrate pain perdu (a deliciously eggy type of French toast) that will be served with black truffle ice cream and applewood smoked bacon — YES. Advanced registration is required, and cost to attend is $65. cookspacehawaii.com
JUN. 16 TUES
