🏔️🤙For our Slack Key Guitar community, here is an exclusive early look at “Koʻolau ʻUʻi” by Dennis Kamakahi, taken from the upcoming album Slack Key Heaven.

The lyric lives in mist and trade winds, rain lifting off the cliffs, and that pull to return to the ridge. Dennis sings it with a steady heartbeat bass and an unhurried lin

🌿🎸 Kawika Kahiapo — “East Side Slack Key” (@hisessions HI*Sessions Acoustic Live) HI*Sessions turns off the vocal mic and lets Kawika Kahiapo do what he does best: pure kī hōʻalu. “East Side Slack Key,” first released on his 1996 debut solo album Alana, is a laid-back instrumental built on a steady, rolling thumb pulse and singing treble lines that feel like a slow drive along the windward side. It is all touch and tone—nothing rushed, every note given time to ring. Kawika is one of the key sl

The lyric marvels at the new technology—how it links islands and carries voices into homes—and even nods to the serial dramas that became appointment listening. Over time it settled into the standard repertoire for hula and Ha
