Hawaiian Music

Since the weather over here in CA is getting nice, it's time to roll down the windows and jam to some relaxing (and at time up beat) Hawaiian Music.

So here's where I'm asking you guys for some help. As old school as it may sound I enjoy music similar to Brother IZ, and Hapa (don't laugh). Because I've listened to them for so long now they're about on their last breath replaying in my stereo. I'm hoping you guys can recommend some other good Hawaiian Albums out there. There's a place here in San Jose, that carries Hawaiian Music so I'm sure if it's not too new they'll have it.

I appreciate the feedback!!

for some kinda old school hawaiian/island style music
try Kapena - they've been around for decades (although missing some "og" members.

for some young and upcoming try koa uka.

if u want traditional style with a new voice try amy hanaialii(sp?)
some classic brothers cazimero is good too

Thanks!! My brother has a couple of Kapena albums...something about it doesn't get me to sit and listen to it...I'll try and bum it off him again, maybe i'm missing something. I'll look for what you guys mentioned. I basically just want something that makes me feel like i'm on the islands

I just have to make sure I print these names out. Lord knows I'll never be able to remember them.

haha, i might have to try that...the hawaiian language sounds nice so long as it's not coming out of my mouth. i can barely carry a tune, let alone sing a song in another language. i'm not inclined enough to annunciate so many vowels after another, and when you put apostrophe's in the mix it's a recipe for disaster...

if you want to hear newer hawaiian jams just listen to KCCN FM100 online.

http://kccnfm100.com/listen/

and if you hear a song you like you can check out the singer/title on their site listed by time played.

You can try these CD's:

Pure Heart

Ka'u

Pati

Opihi Pickers

More traditional Hawai'ian music:

More contemporary (Jawaiian):

That's all I can think of for now in addition to what the others guys said.
Hey Bev, if you want some Hawai'ian music, I've got a small collection. Feel free to have Tommy call me if he's going out to a SF/DC meet and I'll try burn you some stuff. Or if you're gonna be at Mt. Hammy, I can get it to you or Tommy then.
