ABOUT 808 LIVE

808 Live is dedicated to bringing you the best Hawaiian musicians the islands have to offer through contemporary and traditional mele while showcasing local hālau.

Growing up in California, I fondly remember spending my summers with my grandparents in Pakala. My time there profoundly impacted my appreciation for the islands and the Hawaiian culture. I have vivid memories of playing on the landing with the local kids, picking seaweed from the water with my grandmother, snacking on kulolo any chance I got, enjoying the fresh fruit from the surrounding trees and Royal Diamond Créme crackers with my grandfather. I remember feeling proud of my grandparents while watching them interact with the local folks and spending long hours helping them run the camp store. It is there where, among other things I learned about the Ni’ihau shells and their tremendous importance to those who came from the island we would daily admire from a short distance away. As an adult, I shared these special places with my wife and then our twin girls. The four of us now are committed to doing what we can to perpetuate the Hawaiian culture through music and hula. It is our goal to spread the aloha spirit that has made a lasting imprint on all of our hearts with the hope that you too will feel it through our events.
