Aunty Genoa Keawe RIP - Tiki Music

Recently I've become interested in what I call "vintage" Hawaiian music. I don't really know the history or any of the artists, but have enjoyed listening as part of a mix of other Hawaiian music. There was this one singer who had an absolutely amazing voice and sometimes I found myself stopping whatever I was doing and just listening to her. Turns out it was Genoa Keawe. I just assumed all of these artists had long since passed away so I never tried to research any of them. Now I feel like I really missed out on something.
