Looking for a slack key player (or other Hawaiian musicians) for Hermosa beach party - Tiki Music

My office is hosting their annual beach party in Hermosa on August 13. We are renting 2 rooms at the Beach House and then spilling out onto the sand. We're thinking of doing a "Brady Bunch - Hawaii Bound" theme this year and would love to have some LIVE ENTERTAINMENT (last year, we had a steel drum player). Technically, Hermosa has a "no amplified music on the beach" law which lets out the full surf band experience. But, the guy last year played along with a kind of karaoke machine and we didn't get in trouble. We were thinking of getting a slack key player, but I have to admit I don't know any personally. We also can't pay HUGE amounts of cash for this...probably in the $300-ish range (plus booze). UPDATE: Thanks to Lucas and Mitch, I've expanded my options...doesn't HAVE to be slack key (just my original thought), but the budget doesn't get much larger. I might have a little wiggle room with the finance guys, but not much. I do plan on making mai tais, however! Any recommendations? Thanks! [ Edited by: spycygrl 2010-07-13 11:58 ]
