Ho'okele

Let multiple Na Hoku Hanohano award winner, Kupaoa, be your guide on a voyage through musical history with their latest album, Ho'okele. There is much to love in this new assembly of songs selected, performed and sometimes composed by Kellen and Lihau Paik of Kupaoa – “Permeating Fragrance,” whose melodies and renditions have become a favored and beloved “bouquet” perfuming the landscape of Hawaiian music today. Selections from as far back as the 1800's join 6 new creations in this eclectic mix and whether old or new, these songs represent the many that inform our understanding of the art of Hawaiian poetry and expression. They are the navigators on our quest and expression. They are the navigators on our quest to make and enjoy music, today and in the future.
