As a tribute to his late father, Cyril Pahinui initiated the Gabby Pahinui Waimānalo Kanikapila in 2007. Since then, it has grown to become one of Hawai'i's premier celebrations of Hawaiian music. The Na'alehu Theatre, Pahinui Productions and Outrigger Resorts are proud to continue Cyril's efforts and carry this unprecedented event forward celebrating the musical heritage of Waimānalo along with Gabby's April 22nd, and Cyril's April 21st birthdays. Please save the date and plan to join us!
The festival is designed after gatherings remembered from Cyril's childhood days, when weekends at the family's home on Bell Street in Waimānalo were a continuous kanikapila. As in those days, the event attracts more than 100 musicians and gives thousands of fans an opportunity to witness some truly unforgettable moments, amazing performances, and one of a kind all-star jams by some of Hawai'i's greatest musicians who get together to play music in the park.
We are proud to announce Market Place received the 2019
Na Hoku Hanohano Award for - Slack Key Album of the Year!
Cyril was proud of this release and to be a founding member of the prestigeous HARA organization. The recordings for the album were donated by Dancing Cat in support of Cyril's teaching programs.
This compilation represents some of the best work of Cyril's career. Here is the master hitting his stride, letting out all the ideas and emotions that had previously been constrained by tradition. That vitality makes it an essential listen for fans, informed devotees, students looking for artistic insight, and anyone who is just getting into slack-key.
