“Henry Kapono has clearly become the most prolific and profound island entertainer of his era – and there’s no stopping him.” – Entertainment Writer, Wayne Harada - July 22, 2021
In the early ‘90s, Hawaiian Style Band, led by Bryan Kessler and Wade Cambern, redefined contemporary Hawaiian music. They are credited with launching a fresh musical perspective on local culture with original compositions about living Hawaiian style; island romance, talking story, & ohana, and sovereignty. Kessler and Cambern are credited with writing and producing Hawaiian Style Bands first three albums and their interpretation of Hawaiian language songs reacquaints music fans with these important compositions and have resulted in multiple Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards.
