One of many of my music mentors growing up in La&#8217;ie, Ms. Esther DeLarosa Macy whom I loved dearly, she encouraged me to record this song. No one from our North Shore communities has ever recorded this beautiful mele so I went to work on it. I flew home to La&#8217;ie and Kahuku for 3 days an got it done. Honored by my dear cousin Joe Napeahi to do a duet with me, mahalo nui loa. To Mr. Dave Tucciarone, Grammy Award, Na Hoku Hanohano Award winning Producer, aloha Dave for gifting my recording as an appreciation and token of the enduring love for my childhood home.

Mahalo to Hawaiian Airlines and Jon Yamasoto&#8217;s crew, Hi Sessions for the live taping session. The view was breath taking on that day July 24, 2014.  Aunty Ululani Zuttermeister Black sewed us all leis from her hale aina, the bomb.com! The mana was quiet and still in the morning upon the foothills of the Pali mountains. Couldn&#8217;t have had a better birthday, what a way to spend it on my island home. Later that night we did Pakele Live in Honolulu and celebrated a sold out show with my family and dear friends from all over.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\"
