On March 12, PBS Hawai‘i hosted our first-ever livestream concert on location, featuring a performance by Nā Leo Pilimehana from Halekulani’s House Without a Key.

A beloved voice in Hawai‘i’s music community, Jerry Santos, will once again fill the airwaves of PBS Hawai‘i. Santos, a longtime musician, composer and cultural treasure, returns to Nā Mele for an intimate evening of song and story.

This Nā Mele presents two stars of contemporary Hawaiian Music: Kainani Kahaunaele and Kaumakaiwa Lopaka Kanakaʻole.

Two Kauai groups perform their special style of Hawaiian music in the PBS Hawaiʻi studios.

Kealiʻi Reichel has long established himself as one of Hawaiʻi’s premier artists.

The music group Walea blends traditional instrumentation and harmonies with contemporary Hawaiian composition in an effortless way that “feels right,” says band member Kū Koanui-Souza.

Keilana draws inspiration from artists like Ella Fitzgerald and Stevie Wonder to create a sound that’s all her own.

NĀ MELE swings with an encore of a classic special jazz salute to Hawaiian music…

Three magical talents, Mahi Beamer, Nina Kealiʻiwahamana and Robert Cazimero, blend their voices together to create an intimacy that only comes with the melding of family and good friends in this encore presentation of a vintage Nā Mele: Traditions in Hawaiian Song episode from the PBS Hawai‘i studios.
