I find is instrumental only. But I would like some hawaii´an singing.
Can someone please tell me some names of Singers or of CD´s.
That would be very nice and a great help!!

Thank you and ALOHA

Olomana (example album: Like a Seabird)
Makana (examle albums: Koi Au, Ki Ho Alu)
Brothers Cazimero (example album: At Home in the Islands)
Israel Kamakawiwo'ole (example album: Somewhere over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World, Ka Ano'i)
Kaumakaiwa “Lopaka” Kanaka'ole (example albums: Welo, Ha'i Kupuna)

You can also read more about each singer here (on the bottom of this page are links): http://www.to-hawaii.com/hawaiian-music.php

On this page on the very bottom you'll also find 4 links to Olomana music videos. Otherwise you can type the singers' names into Youtube and you'll find many of their songs. Or you can get their albums at online retailers.

I also love Hawaiian music, and on my last visit I saw Brad Kawakami perform, and he was great. He had just released his first album (That I bought on the spot) and it is on Lele Music Productions. http://www.lelemusicproductions.com/index.html
They have several artists and you can sample songs and download or have the CD mailed to you.

I've been listening to Pandora where I have a Hawaiian music station-- all you have to do is input a few hawaiian songs you like, and it will find similar music for you. Great way to find other Hawaiian artists.
