SONS OF HAWAI‘I: A Sound, A
Band, A Legend (2000)
HSV #1070 - 80 Minutes - Color
Hawai‘i International Film Festival nominated for Best Documentary
“Eddie Kamae’s popularity as a musical renaissance man and leader of the
seminal band Sons of Hawai‘i, has been eclipsed by his appetite for
filmmaking and his ability to capture voices of Hawai‘i’s musical and
cultural legacies.”
—Wayne Harada, Advertiser Entertainment Editor
This 80-minute feature length documentary, the seventh in the Kamaes’
award winning Hawaiian Legacy Series, tells the story of the charismatic
band that helped launch the Hawaiian cultural renaissance. Spanning
forty years of Hawai‘i’s rich musical tradition, the film offers an
intimate look at a unique group of performers and composers: their
songs, their humor, and their devotion to a sound that continues to
convey something essential about the Hawaiian spirit.
