You'll find us at around 4-minutes. You should watch the whole thing though. It really was an amazing experience.

Damn, Damn Damn, Why cant I watch anything in larger than 5 second blurbs
I stuck it out, had my ol lady fix me some o her home cooked chicken noodle soup oh yeas!
Once it all loaded up I watched it. Man what fun. What fine ladies.
Did you get you one of those beat me with a sharp feakin stick tats while you was groovin?

Thanks for sharing that. I enjoyed it up until my stoopid computer froze. but I did see your band. Your band is outstanding. I don't think that we are going to Vegas this year, or I would try to catch y'all in concert. Good dancing too. That little boy was "getting down". I am going to go back to see it again if this dumb computer allows it. It is being such an appendage today.

I watched the whole thing. Great video, great band, great stuff. I'm happy for you Shredd!

Awesome stuff.


That song playing "Take Me Back" ... that's not you guys right?

We're just "seeing" you guys on this one?

Yea, it's a cool vid. We've got another festival like it coming up next weekend.

Craig, "Take Me Back" is one of Pati's songs. You are right, the vid just shows us playing. But Pati is in the vid onstage with us, and we played that song that night.

Ok, well your singer has a good voice too, but I thought I noticed the difference in styles. In checking you guys out, it seems some search results show your band on a compilation album or two, featuring Hawaiian Music. I didn't have time to look more into it.

The commercials seemed fairly well done (Found on YouTube)


So, is that right? They are on some album of various Hawaiian artists?

They seem very along in their careers.

Hey bro...


I can't get your band out of my head. LOL


I hope this project works out for awhile.

I have a really good feeling about it.

Reggae with Hawaiian influence (culture, etc) mixed in.

Awesome band name.

Good musicians and vocals.

This is a really GREAT experience for you!

How often have you sat down and played nothing but reggae?

Has to deepen your musical palette. And all those ideas, and that feel, should add to your song writing (which is already powerful).

I bet if you stick with this for awhile, many new doors will open.

I am new to this forum; found it on google searching things on Aloha. haha. oh man i miss home. use to fly every year but work keeps me busy so thx to the internet i can find things like this forum. your music is the jam we used to listen to. boy its been awhile. my wife & i flying to vegas in february. what club do you play at?

Craig, I'm not too sure what albums the band might be on. I do know that recordings are being done and I'm being brought in at the tail end to do leads on them.

One thing to note is, according to the other members, we are also the backing band for Pati who is very much rooted in his career. We're playing with him in 3-weeks.

There is an announcement I would LIKE to make concerning HaleAmanO, but until it's absolutely confirmed, I don't want to say anything. Would be a big step up for us though.


Missinghome, we play all around town. Feel free to ask me when the time comes that you're in town, and I'll let you know where we're playing. We opened for C&K short while back, I'm sure you would have enjoyed it.

oh man, oh man, oh man... you guys opened for C&K ?? Wow! C&K was off da hook back in da day!!!! I'z hummin some tunes now. OK wife wants me to stop. lol Thanx bro, as soon as I get dates when we fly, I'll be back. your band is cool and like you guys are keepin it real.

Oh.. I kinda hate to tell you this, but what a fun day today. We played the Aloha Pacific festival. And what a nice peaceful sunny day. Great people, great food, perfect weather, Hula dancing, warrior dancing, great music, Lau Lau, shade trees, plush green grass, kids playing and dancing, even a little football.

Just awesome family fun.

I freakin' love this band.

I LOVE Hawaii. The words are musical, I can't pronounce the words but love to hear the people that can. I am going back for MY 50th birthday (I gave my hubby a trip there for his 50th) I have two years to plan

This song and this singer always gives me goosebumps

Robin - thats bruddah Iz.. a giant alright! Good people. That song became popular when I was back home. Boy I miss it!

Shred, I'm sooooo jealous. They ain't got no Lau Lau up here. Nothin' close.. nothin close to family either. I gotta beg the wife to let me go sooner. lol thx for the update.
