Always looking to expand its entertainment roster, the award-winning Island View recently unveiled an all-new Saturday Night Showcase series, presenting several top performers from around the region and beyond. Each Saturday will feature an immensely talented musician, and guests are encouraged to come by a bit earlier to take part in the restaurant’s $5 Signature Happy Hour, offered from 3 to 6 p.m. daily.

She loves playing to the crowd, so expect a great selection of songs, both instrumental and vocal, from many genres performed on our baby grand piano that evening: maybe some Motown, oldies, jazz and classical, new-age and modern – or anything in between. Almost daily, Vicki Lei offers her musical talents to local retirement homes, playing for the residents to help ease their minds through the love and sound of music.

Jan. 25, 5:30 to 8:30 p.m.: Rob Robinson Living up to his nickname, Rob’s been lovingly referred to as “The Storyteller” by our staff, as he’s not only talented musically, but he ties all of his songs together while entertaining the crowd similar to the likes of Billy Joel, Tom Petty or Bob Dylan. He loves interacting with the audience, engaging the crowd and performing a great selection of hits that span over decades. This talented and famed touring musician entertains between our baby grand piano and acoustic guitar, performing an eclectic mix of crowd-pleasers and underground favorites from the 1960s and beyond, performing such a varied selection of musical hits, you never know what you'll hear, maybe some Elton John, Allman Brothers, Otis Redding, Annie Lennox, he can play it all – and he’s always up for requests! Stop by, sing and dance along to this talented entertainer’s music.
