Description
“Taking some time to aloha Carlos Andrade...
I only really knew you through your mele. I had the Na Pali Pacific Tunings LP, then the cassette, then the CD, and the record plays on in my regular rotation.
Sending big love to the entire Andrade ʻohana - your pop is a timeless legend. I will remember him.”
These words from the leader of our Hui Mo’oka’ao (Digital Storytelling Team) Kelli Cruz , explains why this episode of #MeleanaSessions features her singing in front of the camera, rather than filming and recording behind it, for the 1st time ever. She is joined by her long-time engineering intern, steel guitar prodigy, and #ManaMele alum Mãlie Lyman.
Enjoy their rendition of
“Hawaiʻi Loa,” recorded live in Wahiawā in honor of the composer of this beautiful mele, Carlos Andrade.
