Smooth island sounds coming to the Warehouse

Whatever type of music you prefer, you just may hear it as Adrian Xavier performs Friday as the United Students of Western Nevada College brings the singer to the Warehouse on Highway 50 East.

Fans say Xavier's music has elements of reggae, world beat, folk, soul, jazz, rock and hip-hop, all infused with a warm island feeling that makes audiences think of a tropical vacation.

He is well-known in Washington and Oregon as a founding member of the band Pure Water. Cost for the 7 p.m. show is $10, or $5 with a WNC student ID. The Warehouse is at 3579 Highway 50 East. Call 445-3323.
