Henry Kapono
Bio
“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
Henry Kapono rose to immense popularity with the phenomenon of Cecilio & Kapono (aka C&K) as half of the duo with Cecilio Rodriguez. They helped forge the sound of ‘70s Island music, with laid-back contemporary rock that voiced the feelings of an entire generation in Hawai‛i. Today he is one of Hawai‘i’s most popular recording artists and presides over Kapono Inc, one of Hawai`i's top multi-function entertainment companies.
Kapono is equally known for his community support and philanthropic endeavors, recently launching the “The Henry Kapono Foundation” in 2018 whose mission is to "Support the music and arts community and by giving with Aloha.” Native Hawaiian Kapono is a Grammy-nominated, multiple award-winning singer and songwriter and the winner of 21 Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards (Hawai‛i’s “Grammy's") including Best Contemporary Album of the Year and, by public vote, Favorite Entertainer of the Year.
“Traveling on his lifelong path of Aloha, Henry continues to create a soundtrack of our lives, contributing to the common good with kindness, commitment, and unwavering passion for his home…” ~Generations Magazine 2023
