Kulāiwi & Kaumakaiwa

  • MUSIC
  • relaxed summer vibes
  • the sounds and harmonies of hawaiian culture
  • Indigenous Music on the Move

Featuring Kawika Kahiapo, Lehua Kalima Alvarez, Shawn Pimental with Pono Fernandez, hula

This talented collective of award winning, talented performers, singers, songwriters, composers and cultural leaders was formed to connect kānaka (Native Hawaiians) to ‘āina (land) through mele (songs), the thread that binds the continuum of cultural knowledge. Soaring vocals, island harmonies, a folk vibe, and fun ‘talk story’ have won Kulāiwi four Hawaiian Grammys including Group of the Year, for their first album, Native Lands.

Award-winning singer and riveting performer Kaumakaiwa, from the renowned Kanakaʻole family, seamlessly melds Hawaiian culture and modern sensibilities in deeply powerful music and chant. A modern Hawaiian, she is a vibrant keeper of culture, and at the same time, an authentic innovator.

“[Kaumakaiwa]... vaulted through various registers and timbres, from bass to witchy contralto rasp to sweet soprano… a traditionalist tour de force.”

New York Times

“When I listened to these three harmonies on stage move through songs written to honor Hawaii to covering Crosby, Stills, and Nash, my heart and soul just swelled with feeling and once again time stood still for me”

Let's Talk About Music
