🌊🎸 Ledward Kaapana with Bob Brozman — “Moana Chimes” (Napili Bay, 2011) A steel‑and‑slack key summit on the beach in Maui. Filmed at George Kahumoku Jr.’s slack key workshop at Napili Bay in June 2011, Ledward Kaapana holds down the groove on six‑string kī hōʻalu while Bob Brozman sings over the top on acoustic steel. The tempo is relaxed, the time is deep, and the two of them trade ideas so naturally it feels like one long conversation rather than a “feature” solo. “Moana Chimes” is a classic

🎸 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

Ledward Kaapana — vintage Island Music, Island Hearts performance 🎸 A throwback clip of Led at full command: nimble picking, deep swing, and that easy conversation between bass lines and melody that made him a favorite on stages across Hawaiʻi and beyond. Filmed for the late-1980s KGMB TV series Island Music, Island Hearts, this segment catches Led in solo spotlight — the kind of piece he used to bring to backyard sessions and concert halls alike.

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
