Ledward Kaapana with Jesse Gregorio — “I Kona” (Live from the Atherton) A signature song from a master, played in an intimate room. In this Atherton Performing Arts Studio performance, Ledward Kaapana stretches out on “I Kona” with just guitar, voice, and Jesse Gregorio on bass. The thumb pulse sits deep, the treble line stays easy and unforced, and his vocal rides on top with that calm, lived-in confidence. It is the kind of take where nothing feels showy, but every turnaround lands exactly whe

A moment that still gives chicken-skin. Ledward Kaapana, Dennis Kamakahi, and Nathan Aweau join—without rehearsal—to close the first concert with “Hawai‘i Aloha.” Led’s shimmering ki ho‘alu, Dennis’s steady presence, and Nathan’s rich vocal/bass lines fold together like they’ve shared a stage for years, inviting the whole room to sing. It’s the kind of communal ending generations in Hawai‘i know by heart, filmed here by Ken Levine in all its warm, unguarded humanity. This was the first time thes

🎸 Ledward Kaapana with Fran Guidry — “‘Opihi Moemoe” A classic Leonard Kwan mele in the hands of one of his greatest heirs. In this clip from Don Quixote’s in Felton, California (shot January 22, 2013), Ledward Kaapana takes the lead on “‘Opihi Moemoe” while Fran Guidry slips in underneath with second guitar. Led’s thumb keeps a rock-solid taro-patch groove, treble lines dance on top, and Fran fills the spaces with clean, supportive answers. It’s relaxed and playful, but every turnaround lands
