Teresa Bright – HAWAIINAWA

January 5, 2008
Hawaiiawa

Hawaiinawa is a brand new release from beloved Hawaiian musician Teresa Bright. This exciting new CD is inspired by the Japanese love for the Hawaiian culture, music and hula. It also draws in the recent popularity of Okinawan music among Japan’s younger generation. Hawaiinawa brings these two cultures together and entwines Okinawan music with the sweet gentle language and sounds of Hawai’i. This is a unique and captivating collection of music that is recorded in the Hawaiian language, arranged with the the Kiho’alu (slack key) tunings and then all flavored with the vocal style of Teresa Bright.
