NA PALAPALAI:
Na Palapalai trio brings new energy and power to their falsetto style of music. Recipients of numerous Na Hoku Hanohano Awards (Equivalent to the GRAMMY Awards) (Hawaiian Album, Hawaiian language, Group of the Year and Haku Mele), Na Palapalai offers a collection of Hawaiian standards and original compositions sure to captivate all Hawaiian music enthusiasts. Their unique harmonies and falsetto mastery set them apart from any other group. Get a preview of their award-winning vocals on www.myspace.com/daferns.

NATALIE AI KAMAU`U:
Natalie started turning heads when she was just a teenager, singing alongside her father, Howard Ai, for Halau Hula Olana. It wasn't long before Natalie began stealing the show. Although she garnered the coveted title Miss Aloha Hula, it was her angelic voice that really caught people's attention. It's a voice that penetrates straight to the heart and moves the soul. www.myspace.com/natalie_ai_kamauu
