A FEW NOTABLE PAST PERFORMANCES
The Aloha Boysperformed on the National Mall as part of the National World War II Reunion dedicating the World War II Memorial. (click here)
The Aloha Boys also performed on the main stage on the National Mall for the opening of the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian. It was strange to see a live video feed of us performing on giant screens on the National Mall.
The legendary Ledward Ka'apana joined us on the main stage for the opening of the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian. What an honor for us! Later, we joined him for his performance at that event. We have become good friends with Led and his wife, Sharon. We have learned over time is that even more than Led's incredible talent, Led and Sharon are really wonderful people.
The Aloha Boys performed on live radio on National Public Radio's Talk of the Nation. Listen to the broadcast.
The Aloha Boys performed with our daughters at the Kennedy Center Millenium Stage on February 18, 2005. See and hear their performance.
The Aloha Boys opened for Daniel Ho and Herb Ohta, Jr., and the incomparable Makaha Sons at Hunter College in New York City. This is a photo of the finale which turned out to be an impromptu version of Noho Pai Pai.
