Henehene Kou Aka by Israel Kamakawiwo’ole. A favorite all over Hawaii ne we love playing this song and wanted to cover it to share with our friends & family the beauty and magic of the Hawaiian language in this jamming tune! This song, Henehene Kou Aka, translated to “your laughter is contaigious” is about a couple riding a trolly around to different places where they always have a good time!
We teamed up with Rick Jichaku, owner of Hilo Ukulele & Guitar Shop on Ukulele, and Matt Spencer on the bass.
Thank you so much to Alana Mirror & Matty Malone Jennings for the videography!
