THE VENUE WAS GREAT! STAFF WERE VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL! OMG!!! THIS WAS MY 1ST CONCERT EVER AND IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! IAM TONGI AND HIS BAND DEFINITELY KNOW HOW TO PUT ON A CONCERT!!! WHAT A SHOW THEY DID IN FRONT OF A SOLD OUT CROWD!!! THE CROWD ENTHUSIASM WAS FANTASTIC!!! EVERYBODY WAS SO ENGAGED. SINGING, CLAPPING, YELLING AND SCREAMING. IT WAS ELECTRIFYING TO SAY THE LEAST. IAM AND HIS MAGNIFICENT VOICE WERE PHENOMENAL AS ALWAYS. AFTER THE CONCERT MY FRIEND ISABEL AND I WERE THE FIRST DUO TO GET TO HUG IAM AND GET A PICTURE WITH HIM!!! I SCORED TWO HUGS ONE ON HIS LEFT AND ONE ON HIS LEFT!!! I WAS ON CLOUD NINE BY THE TIME I LEFT SEVEN FEATHERS CASINO. I WILL CHERISH THIS DAY FOREVER!!! I HAVE BEEN A DEVOTED FAN SINCE THE 1ST TIME I SAW HIS AMERICAN IDOL AUDITION!!!!

About Iam Tongi
You can hear it in the gentle rasp of his wave-washed vocal soul. You can see it in his smile. For Iam Tongi, music is about transformation – and it always has been. A Hawaiian-born singer-songwriter and the Season 21 champion of American Idol, the 20-year-old Tongi first picked up a ukulele in the fifth grade, immersed in a deeply musical world filled with the traditional singing and dance of Pacific Island cultures. Living in the small town of Kahuku on the northern tip of Ohau, Tongi learned to sing from his father, who in turned had learned from his father before him. Clearly blessed with an expressive, charismatic voice, Tongi was pushed hard and developed a multi-faceted sound blending island reggae with the influence of his family record collection – which included country (Kenny Rogers), classic rock (Dr. Hook), and R&B (Luther Vandross). By 13 Tongi had played his first show, but after moving to Seattle a few years later – and losing his father in 2021 – the young talent nearly gave music up completely. His mother secretly signed him up for American Idol, and after Tongi’s viral audition performance of James Blunt’s “Monsters” became one of Idol’s all time emotional highlights, he went on to win Season 21, making history as the first Pacific Islander to ever win the show. With a thriving fanbase which supports millions of global on-demand streams and social media followers and nationwide concert tours, Tongi now begins a new chapter of life and music. Teaming up with acclaimed songwriter/producer Johnny Reid, his 2024 single “Road to Hana” marks a creative transition leaning into his cultural heritage and musical roots – but also the man he’s become. Fusing breezy beach balladry and sunshine country with laid-back soul, gospel, and more, new music is in the works, as Tongi looks to spread a feel-good message of positivity to the horizon, and beyond.
