About Makana:

Makana is a singer, composer and master of the indigenous Hawaiian Slack-Key guitar tradition. The New York Times called him "dazzling."  His original music has been featured on three Grammy-nominated albums, including the soundtrack of the Academy-Award winning film “The Descendants,” starring George Clooney.

Born in 1978 in Hawai’i, Makana grew up on the shores of Waikīkī amid the likes of legend Don Ho and young Bruno Mars. Makana - whose name means “a gift given freely”- began singing when he was seven years-old, took up ‘ukulele at nine and began studying the centuries-old art of slack key guitar at eleven, learning from the great Hawaiian masters. He quickly gained the reputation as the youngest virtuoso of the tradition and has evolved his own dynamic, high-octane style, coined “Slack Rock,” infused with elements of bluegrass, rock, and blues.  Click here for full bio: Makana Bio
