 This week on Pakele Live! with Tony Solis we’re hosting a CD release party for Lorna Lim, who is celebrating her long-awaited second solo album Polinahe.Born and raised on the Big Island and a member of the award-winning family musical group known throughout Hawai’i simply as 'the Lim Family,' Lorna began playing music at an early age with her siblings and parents. Her sister Nani is one of Hawai’i's most renowned hula teachers, and her Grammy-nominated brother, Sonny, is one of Hawai’i's top slack key guitar players. Lorna’s beautiful voice, her deep knowledge of hula, and her connection to the Big Island's music tradition place her among Hawai’i’s living treasures. She recorded Polinahe for hula dancers in a style that reflects her personal musical tradition. The translation of the title - poli, meaning from the heart, and nahe, meaning sweet and pure - sums up Lorna's musical style and the beautiful quality of her voice.
Also appearing will be former Pakele Live! guests Ke Kauoha the Jazz Project (with Ioane Burns, Kapono Na’ili’ili and Halehaku Seabury and comedian Rodney Villanueva, known as “Hawai’i’s Funniest MC.” Rodney has performed at thousands of weddings and other events, as well as in TV commercials and on television and radio programs. There will also be hula, and possibly some surprise guest appearances by... well you'll just have to come down or watch online to find out!
