Carl Ray Villaverde and Joanie Collins are Mango, and they are both wonderfully talented instrumentalists and vocalists. Carl Ray will dazzle you with his inimitable stylings on the Ukulele - he is one of Hawai`i's premier players, as well as a singer and songwriter.

Liana Aranita,the Hula dancer who headlines the Hawaiian show portion of the evening,is not only lovely and gracious, but is very accomplished. She performed for many years on the Big Island of Hawaii for Tihati, and as part of the the Lim family's Halau took part in the Merrie Monarch Festival in Hilo. She travelled to Tahiti and to New Zealand as ambassador of Aloha.
