OMG...the whole show was Fabulous!!!! The opening act of Kunia Galdeira and Kevin Kealoha was amazing.........they really need to put out an album. I know they also play as a trio with Sonny Lim, but the harmonies with just the two of them is mesmerizing too.
The Lims are a classic Hawaiian Family, so comfortable on stage like they are on a back porch. The variations of songs, vocal ranges, instruments and arrangements of songs is wonderful...yes, that is why they are always getting awards.
Raiatea has such a beautiful voice which is so effortless for her. I love it that she's bringing back the old style of singing along with the instruments. I'm not that old but I grew up with Lena Machado and Leina'ala Heine songs, it brought me back to slower and simpler times. I know Raiatea made Lena and Leina'ala proud by singing their songs.

Favorite moment: All the hula dancers with the Lim's. Especially Baba and his fiery-playful energy. @
Opening act(s): Kunia Galdeira & Kevin Kealoha are the winds beneath many other musicians wings. They are humble to the core, but one day soon I'd love to see their name as the Main Concert Attraction!!!! @
