I have been to these events many times.

Keola Beamer is from Maui and has a beautiful voice. I have one of the CDs.

Tony C is from Oahu - I went to his mele last July in Whittier. I have 2 of his CDs with one personally autographed by him. He has a haulau on Oahu which is one of my next fetes to accomplish. Attend his haulau for a few sessions.

Also a great singer is Kaeli'i Rachel - great music from Maui. Born in Lahaina Town and raised in Paia by his Auntie and Grandma.

He was up for a Grammy this year - but lost out (along with the Cazmeros Bros.) to a slack key CD. Too bad, maybe next year the Grammy's will appreciate da island music more.
