MACC Presents…A Local Voices Mele Series
… a dynamic force…since he was a teenage prodigy known locally as the Ki Ho‘alu Kid.—New York Times
One of the hottest young musical protégés to emerge from Hawai‘i, on both the slack key and world music charts, Makana plays his own style of contemporary world rock. With a firm foundation in the traditions of ki ho‘alu—Hawaiian slack key guitar—Makana adds the influences of folk, rock, ethnic, bluegrass, jazz, traditional, ambient and classical music to create a style all his own. Known as a musical world time traveler, channeling inspirations from many places and times through his voice, fast fingers and guitar, Makana brings them together as one, with ground-breaking new works and reanimated classics. His music transcends category and trend by integrating eclectic elements from diverse musical sources into his traditional Hawaiian slack key, to create his arrangements. The result is pure innovation, and the charting of new sonic frontiers.
