AG presents is excited to bring Sgt Splendor; featuring Kate Vargas and Eric McFadden, to Kona on Friday, December 5th for a free show at Willie’s Hot Chicken.
Before joining forces, the duo behind Sgt.

Sgt. Splendor’s upcoming album “ISOTOPIA” is slated for release in November 2025. The first two singles from the album, “Hey, Splendor” and “Money In It,” featuring Norwood Fisher (Fishbone) on bass and Paulo Baldi (Les Claypool) on drums, are available now.
“One of the most unique bands to come out of the new millennium is the contrasting duo of Sgt. Splendor. The group consists of singer/songwriter/guitarist/flautist Kate Vargas, and her partner in crime, guitarist/vocalist Eric McFadden (George Clinton & P-Funk, Eric Burdon, Les Claypool, etc)…is this an album for the masses?… yes. Yet it is even more so an album for the music aficionados who understand and appreciate in-depth, heavy songwriting, wrapped in a blanket of heavy Blues and Rock music that holds its own against anything you can throw at it. “ – Tone Scott / GOLDMINE Magazine 2024
