The Hawaiian spirit is fertile with the soul
of music from the traditional to the contemporary, from Hawaiian mele to Asian melodies to Western tunes.
Discover the musical versatility of Hawaiian music and check to see if one of Hawaii's performers is
celebrating the Hawaiian culture with a concert during your visit. Not to be missed are artists such
as the Brothers Cazimero, Amy Hanaialii Gilliom, Jake Shimabukuro, Na Leo and Raiatea Helm.
Venues
along Waikiki fill the air with the sounds of local artists nightly. Set aside an evening or two for
the Honolulu Symphony, the oldest American orchestra west of the Rockies. Check out a performance with
an internationally acclaimed guest from their MasterWorks Season Collection. For those who seek something
less traditional, choose a performance from the symphony's Pops Season. Or head to one of Honolulu's clubs
and restaurants for jazz, rock and contemporary sounds island style. On Fridays, step back into time as The
Royal Hawaiian Band plays on the grounds of Iolani Palace. Wherever one goes on Oahu, the song of the trade
winds in the palm trees are accompanied by the sound of music.

House Without A Key
Sunset cocktails & Hawaiian music - the essence of Oahu. Immortalized in a 1925 Charlie Chan novel, House Without A Key is
Halekulani's popular indoor/outdoor gathering spot for informal breakfast, lunch, cocktails, appetizers and entertainment.
One of the favored traditions of the original Halekulani - cocktails and Hawaiian music under the century-old Kiawe tree -
has been faithfully preserved here.
Memorable sunsets with distinctive Hawaiian music nightly: Two former Miss Hawaii's, Kanoe Miller and Debbie Nakanelua,
complement the music with their graceful and traditional hula.

Duke's Canoe Club
There may be no more exciting place to people-watch than at the Barefoot Bar.
You could say it's the coolest hotspot on the island. Enjoy live music by Henry Kapono on Sunday, and live concerts on the
beach every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Sip an exotic cocktail and enjoy a menu of memorable dishes including sandwiches,
burgers, fish tacos, pizza, Hawaiian local plates and pupus.

Hanohano Room
Set 30 floors up and surrounded by glass walls, this restaurant and classic Waikiki nightspot has breathtaking views.
It hasn't changed much since the '70s; the nightly live entertainment (which starts between 7:30 and 9) features the same
smooth jazz, Hawaiian classics, and boozy lounge standards your parents probably danced to. The mood changes dramatically,
though, when the younger generation invades on the first and third Saturdays of each month for the party called Skyline.
