FRIDAY

Mele No Ka ‘Oi Playlists I am so happy to be part of the KKCR ‘ohana that is sharing Hawaiian music with our listeners. It is such beautiful music!! I moved to Kaua‘i from Southern California in 1981. I am a mother of 3 and grandmother of 4. My way of preserving this beautiful island life, and supporting the culture and language is to focus on the heartbeat of Hawai`i. it’s wonderful blessing of music. I love music, to dance hula, swim, snorkle and play with my mo‘opunas on our precious island. I am a Hawaiian music retailer, with 2 locations here on Kaua‘i. I first started Hula lessons in 1975 and was privileged to have a fabulous Kumu Hula who taught us Hawaiian language during our Sunday classes, giving me the foundation for Hawaiian music and Hawaiian culture I was looking for. I am also a licensed Esthetician working part time at the Princeivlle Spa. I love our island and it’s amazing, breathtaking beauty. We are so blessed to have the privilege and honor of being here. I pray that all the generations to follow us will have the same privilege and beauty to gaze upon. www.hawaiianmusicstore.com

Democracy Now!

Playlists

with Kevin Swampdaddy Rogers Playlists

Playlists The Solid Action show highlights recordings made by marginalized groups and elements of a counter culture from a wide span of time. Many of the songs I play were never hits and some have never been played on the radio before. Now this music is reaching a wider audience on Kaua’i (and beyond!) and hopefully making people’s day a little brighter.
