Live from the Atherton:
Celebrate 808 ft. Honeyfingers
Saturday, November 7, 2026
Show starts at 6:00 p.m.
Tickets: $30
We’re kicking off Celebrate 808 with Honeyfingers, led by NYC-born musician Jonny — and this one is going to be a steel guitar extravaganza.
A longtime fixture of New York’s music scene, Jonny has built a career around his extraordinary touch, tone, and deep devotion to the music. His work has taken him around the world and alongside artists including David Byrne, Norah Jones, Busta Rhymes, Miranda Lambert, Big Daddy Kane, Emmylou Harris, Pharoah Sanders, Kenny Chesney, and more.
His band Honeyfingers was a New York fixture, earning a New York Times description that says it all: “Pristine honky tonk.”
Now based in Hawaiʻi, Jonny brings Honeyfingers to the Atherton for an entire set dedicated to the steel guitar — kicking off a month of eclectic sounds, artists, and community with Celebrate 808.
