Oh what fun! The wonderful slack key player with his back to the camera is none other than Ben Kaili from the Big Island. Jonathan is a superb ki ho`alu player and singer as well; also in view on this video is Derek Higa with the beautiful koa 12-string and Shawn Machida who can keep the pa`ani going. Wow, the talent I was surrounded by. & Christina who plays Daddy so well. Auntie learned plenny about aloha that day. .

Me ke aloha nui,

Auntie Wanda

And in addition to Uncle Ron Kanahele on steel, Uncle Braddah on steel. He is a superb steel player, with sweet, sweet sounds and a most beautiful voice, as well.

Johnathan Costillo is one of my favorite artists that attend the kanikapilas. He's just awesome, and such a nice guy too!
