Experience Hawaiian life through our music

KANI

The first album from KANI, Chasin’ Rainbows fo’ da Rent, tells the story of island life, funny, real, and full of heart.
Born in the cane fields of Maui, this new sound called Maui Songs mixes Gypsy rhythm with island soul.
It’s the music of locals who grind hard, laugh louder, and still find rainbows after every storm. 🌈
Turn it up, feel da breeze, and hear Hawaii the way we live it — broke but blessed, always with aloha. 🤙🎶

🌺 KANI, The Living Songs of Hawaii

KANI was born in the sugar cane fields of Maui, where island rhythms and world sounds came together to create something new, a joyful blend of local reggae, Gypsy-style rumba, and everyday stories from island life.

Our music is made for travelers, locals, and dreamers alike. Whether you’re exploring the Road to Hana, catching sunrise at Haleakalā, or relaxing on Kāʻanapali Beach, KANI is the perfect soundtrack to your Hawaii adventure.

Every song tells a story, from the simple island grinds and the laughter of small-town life, to the spirit of aloha that connects everyone who calls Hawaii home. We celebrate the people behind the music, the hard-working locals, the late-night musicians, the surfers chasing one more wave, and the families who keep the rhythm of the islands alive.

With every strum of the ukulele, every beat of the conga, and every laugh shared in Pidgin and English, KANI captures the real heartbeat of Hawaii. This isn’t just a band, it’s a community movement built to lift up local voices, share island pride, and remind the world what makes Hawaii so special.

So whether you’re here for a week or born and raised on the islands, roll down the windows, turn up the music, and let KANI guide your next adventure.
Island made. World played. 🌴🎶

E Mau Ke Aloha – Love Stay Forever

Eh, dis one fo’ all da strong souls we lost, an’ fo’ da ones still standin’ tall aftah da Lahaina fire. No, we not goin’ forget. Not now, not evah.

Fo’ our mamas who held us tight wit gentle hands.
Fo’ our papas who built our hale from sweat, salt, an’ stories of da sea.
Fo’ our braddahs who laughed loud undah da banyan tree.
Fo’ our sistahs who danced hula in da trade winds.
Fo’ da friends who shared shave ice on Front Street, an’ fo’ all da Hawaiians who paddle togettah an’ keep ʻohana strong like da ʻāina itself.

We carry all of you inside, fo’ real kine, like lei around our neck dat neva fade. Da fire took plenty, but it neva take our aloha. Nah. Dat blaze sparked someting even stronger: da light we hold fo’ each oddah, da hope dat guide us through da smoke toward bettah days.

Now we send out dese songs, from soft slack-key to rumba heartbeat, as small prayers fo’ healing. May da music glide ova Maui’s green ridges, may it echo down Lahaina town as she rise again.

E mau ke aloha, love stay forever.
Mahalo nui loa. Keep standin’. Keep risin’.

In loving memory of our Lahaina ʻohana.
From KANI, wit all our heart.
