What a great night we had last night! That was one of the best concerts we ever had and I’m so glad we packed the house and I’m so thankful that people enjoyed the show! I posted pictures below of the performance and feel free to look at my Facebook for more comments and pictures.
Again, thanks to everyone for coming to see us at our last Tokyo show for our 2010 Summer Tour! See you soon!!

Milk Cocoa

I look for this drink wherever I am in japan and I finally found it on my way back from Disney Sea. Its called miruku kokoa, and its so delicious! I like it way better than the ice cocoa so if I find it I always buy it? So Ono!

Disney!

We went to Disney Sea yesterday and it was awesome!! It was super hot….but still fun!! We went on all the rides we could and ate a lot of food but at the end of the day I was so tired. I really want to do that again though very soon!
Check out the pictures below from our adventure -

Iolani Store Open!

Hey everyone,
Just got word from home that the Iolani Store is open for business! Go check it out because the aloha shirts and dresses are awesome! We also sell a lot of other goods like lotions, hats, signed CDs from Hawaiian artists, pictures, etc. The one thing I really like about the store is the Kauai Kookies because we have exclusive flavors that you can only find at the Iolani store or at the Kauai Kookie factory. They’re so Ono! Also, who knows, I might be playing music there every once in awhile…

Go check out Iolani on Kona Street -
1234 kona street, Honolulu, Hawaii 96814

Thanks!!

The Hawaiian Breeze event at Moon Romantic was super fun! The lineup was Vance K Band, ManoaDNA, and Churamana. I posted pictures below. Moon Romantic was an awesome place!

Moved House

alex — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 05:04:31 +0000

Today we moved hotels to be closer to Tokyo, but we realized that the internet offered at the hotel does not let us go on facebook or twitter so I’m sorry if I don’t update my other blogs as often!

We don’t have any performances today so we are just relaxing and getting our rest. While waiting to check in to our hotel, we event to a great udon place that we’ve never been to. It was great かけうどん and I want to go back!! Check out the pictures below…

Anyways, it’s nap time so I’ll talk to you all later!

So Hot!

alex — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 23:29:37 +0000

Hey everyone,
It is day 3 of performances in Japan and I’m so exhausted already. It’s really hot and humid everywhere so it drains my energy throughout the day. We have 3 things on our list today; J-WAVE radio interview, Yokohama Bay Quarter, and Colette Mare. All should be awesome shows so come see us if you’re here! I’ve forgotten my camera at every gig so far so my prother has all the pictures but I promise I’ll remember it today!!
Other than being exhausted, our trip has been good. It’s always fun to come to japan and perform because everyone is so nice and supportive!
That’s it for now!
See you all soon!
Aloha,
AK

Back to the Land of FOOD! :)

Aloha everyone!!
We are officially back to japan on our promotional tour for Hawaii Tourism Japan and our “PURE ALOHA!” CD. It’s so nice to be back even though it seems like we never left from golden week in may. The weather is beautiful, not too hot….yet…

Last night we arrived and went straight to a Kirin beer hall for good eats and great 生ベール!
It’s great to be back in japan! I’ll be posting pictures on this blog and at Facebook and also check out our Japanese blog!!!

Thanks everyone, hope to see some of you at our shows here!!

Another Friday at Lulus!

alex — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 19:27:28 +0000

It’s been a long week and I’ve done a lot of work getting our CD released everywhere but the week comes to an end with our Pau Hana Friday show at Lulus in Waikiki!!!! This is always so much fun and I’m excited to go back today! I don’t know why I’m looking forward to tonight, but for some reason I’m very excited to play haha.

As for other news, our CD is taking pre orders now for our June 29th CD release! This CD took a lot of time and effort but it was well worth it because it came out so good! Please check it out when you can, it will also be on iTunes.

Thanks for reading!
