Product DescriptionAhumanu: The Gathering is the much anticipated debut CD from Maui s charming and beloved female group, Ahumanu. Featuring well known Maui radio personality Liz Kopa`a Tita Morales, surfer/artist/musician Joni DeMello and Aunty Bessie DeMello (long-time Maui entertainer and respected kupuna), these spirited wahine are seasoned entertainers who develop a reputation and demand wherever they perform. Visitors become fans at their regular gig at the Grand Wailea Resort and special appearances at the Ritz-Carlton; the local crowd turns out to cheer the titas at the Blue Marlin. Support and enthusiasm from fellow radio DJs ensures excellent radio play. With gorgeous Polynesian harmonies, skilled musicianship (including support from Hawaiian music heavyweights Ata Damasco and Bobby Ingano), this collection of musical aloha takes the listener from traditional songs penned over a century ago through Waikiki s golden era and up to the present with genuine Hawaiian heart and soul. There s even a hint of Elvis, suggesting that Ahumanu: the Gathering is just the beginning for these gifted and lively wahine.
