Aloha
Aloha kakou,
We want to thank everyone who has supported Ho'omalie this past year by either
purchasing our CD, "Only You", or attending one of our performances.
We have been busy promoting our music locally and globally, playing for
concert audiences as well as for kupuna and keiki in elderly care homes and
oncology wards. The rewards have been profound. It's always been our contention
that we, the musicians, are merely the vessels for this music and when ego and
human agenda is removed from the equation, the music will stand alone in it's
purest and most beautiful form. This is what we continue to strive for as
Hawaiian artists and hopefully, you can hear this in our recording.

"Only You"
by John Berger Honolulu Star Bulletin
Vol. 11, Issue 335 - Friday, December 1, 2006

Ho'omalie
(Ho'okupu HKPU 1001)
Zanuck Kapala Lindsey won a Hoku Award ("Jazz Album of the Year") in
2000 with "Hula Joe & The Hutjumpers," an album of contemporary big
band swing music recorded in response to the swing dancing fad of the
late-1990s. The Hutjumpers are long-gone, but Lindsey is back with a
new group, Ho'omalie, and an album that will certainly have much more
staying power.
