Album Notes

Hawai`i island songwriter & slack key guitarist John Keawe releases another all original CD -- HAWAI`I ISLAND...IS MY HOME. Eight instrumentals and five vocal compositions comprise this latest endeavor.

The title cut “Hawai`i Island… Is My Home” (vocal) exemplifies John¹s true love for the island of Hawai`i. Other vocal compositions include, “O Kakou Ka Po`e” (we the people), “Across The Way”, “Just Like An Angel”, and “Ku`u Hoa`aloha”, a farewell to his lifelong friend, Wayne Francisco.

The eight instrumentals are in various tunings as well as stylings. “Faces of Pele” takes you on the ever-present journey of Pele. “Steal The Morning”, captures the splendor of the early morning. “Guitarra” in honor of the vaqueros (spanish cowboys) and a little humor in a song called “Auwe Manakuke” (the mongoose).

This 9th CD release by John reveals his deep love, understanding and honest appreciation of his surroundings.
