PURE SPIRIT, ALL HEART: THE SOUND OF SWEET ALOHA
SWEET ALOHA shares traditional and modern fresh tracks from music around the world. Rooted with influences of island melodies from Hawai'i, Polynesia, and Asia, add a dash of contemporary folk, a twist of Latin rhythm, a sprinkling of Middle Eastern grooves, plus a generous helping of classic standards--SWEET ALOHA creates its own unique sound by blending smooth vocals with warm rhythmic strums spiced with unconventional and uninhibited lead patterns of the ukulele. Each song is a surprising delight for the senses, each piece played with undeniable soul. A familiar taste from days past updated with a fresh flavor--at once inspiring and memorable for all ages. Come share the experience, the culture, and spirit of simply beautiful music. The sound of SWEET ALOHA...pure spirit, all heart!
