Aina

Description

On the heels of Mailani's self-titled debut solo album, which garnered her the prestigious 'Female Vocalist of the Year' Award, comes her brand new CD entitled `A-ina. (English translation: Earth, land) With her feet well planted in the ''a - ina', this brave artist continues to challenge herself with each project. Mailani is originally from the very successful, award-winning group, Keahiwai, and the rocking trio, Mighty J. Her first CD proved that she had the ability to succeed as a solo artist. Her sophomore album 'Žina gives us much more. 'A - ina includes some of the expected contemporary swagger which her fans and radio will love, but there is also something really surprising here that takes Mailani to a whole new level as an artist. Her delivery of some traditional Hawaiian pieces will impress and delight anyone who loves Hawaiian music. Here is a modern Hawaiian woman who knows how to entertain and have fun and here too is a Hawaiian woman with the depth and respect for the generations that came before her. 'A - ina is both gorgeous and entertaining.
