The Lonely Hearts – Beatles & Beyond

Hawai‘i’s fab-four - Jimmy Dillon, Steve Morris, Justin Morris and Austin Hutto - bring the energy of John, Paul, George and Ringo to every show they play.

All special musicians and Beatles aficionados, The Lonely Hearts play the music of the Beatles and a few additional songs that The Lonely Hearts believe the Beatles would appreciate and perhaps perform if they were still with us today. 

Jimmy Dillon – Guitars / Vocals
Jimmy Dillon is a luminary in the world of music who long-ago established himself as a go-to guitarist for legendary artists. During his accolade-filled career spanning over five decades, Jimmy has performed with many of the greatest musicians and stars of the rock era including Bob Dylan, Carlos Santana, Bruce Springsteen, Sting, BB King, Buddy Guy, John Lee Hooker, Bonnie Raitt, The Grateful Dead’s Bob Weir and hundreds more. Jimmy has also toured the world with Bruce Springsteen’s saxophonist Clarence Clemons’ The Red Bank Rockers, recorded with Carlos Santana, and played with The Band (founding members Levon Helm, Rick Danko, Garth Hundson and Richard Manuel) for President Bill Clinton. In addition, Jimmy’s soulful vocals, heartfelt lyrics and exceptional guitar skills have earned him a loyal following as a frontman, captivating audiences worldwide. 

"Jimmy Dillon is one of the most creative and talented artists of our day.” - Chuck Leavell, The Rolling Stones’ keyboardist and musical director

"I love Jimmy's down-in-the-bucket blues." - Carlos Santana

"Jimmy Dillon, the boy can play." - John Lee Hooker

Steve Morris – Drums / Vocals
Steve Morris is a groove master and has proven the old cliche about drummers is 100% true, ‘show me a great band, and I’ll show you a great drummer.’ Steve’s rockin’ beats have brought massive audiences at arenas and festivals to their feet, backing his son’s outfit, The Timmy Morris Band, on multiple tours with Everclear and King’s X since 2000. Steve also performs with Roger Fisher (lead guitarist for Heart), as well as Austin, Texas Blues Hall of Fame legend Chris Duarte.

Justin Morris – Bass / Vocals
Justin Morris is a first-call, anchor of today’s burgeoning Maui music scene. Originally hailing from West Virginia and nurtured in the scenic Appalachian Mountains, Justin is a multi-instrumentalist who has dedicated his life to lifting the hearts of audiences with soulful music - whether that’s leading his own band Justin Morris & Company (JMoCo), performing on international tours as a long-time member of Brown Chicken Brown Cow String Band or supporting the creative efforts of others through songwriting, recording and/or concert production. 

Austin Hutto – Guitars / Keys / Vocals
Austin Hutto is a walking Beatles encyclopedia. He eats, sleeps and breathes the Beatles. No hyperbole in stating so, to see what we mean, check Austin’s video explaining how to recreate Paul McCartney’s famous keyboard lick from ‘Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.’ Austin Hutto is a creative by day, making films and images come to life, and a Beatle by night, playing keys and guitar and lending his voice to the harmonies of The Lonely Hearts band.
