Masters of Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar, Volume 2

Slack key guitar has been the music of Hawai'i since the 1800’s. Traditionally played in island backyards, slack key has come to represent Hawai'i as a true folk art form and is now known and enjoyed around the world.

At the weekly Masters of Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar Concert Series on Maui, Hawaii’s best musicians gather to play this unique style of music. This is the fifth collection of songs recorded live at this show. 

In this fifth album of live music from the shows, it is our great pleasure to present music by many of Hawaii’s finest slack key artists:  George Kahumoku JrDennis KamakahiSonny Lim Keoki KahumokuOwana SalazarKawika KahiapoJeff Peterson, and  Daniel Ho.

As a bonus, there are performances by up and coming young players, plus leo ki’eki’e (Hawaiian falsetto) by our islands’ most renowned practitioner of the art, Uncle Richard Ho’opi’i. Another included treat is a song featuring Hawaiian steel guitar by one of the true masters of the craft, Bobby Ingano.
