Tl;dr- what are your favorite current artists / bands, island centric or just loved by the communities? Share what you are vibin’ and lovin’!
I grew up with slack key and traditional stuff when we visited Hana or Kauai, and love all the happy pop reggae covers to cruise to, etc. But I also wonder what other stuff you guys love that may be under repped on radio or what not?
This is some stuff I love when I’m there and in general, and I’m just speculating what some might enjoy, or may enjoy!
If Fat Freddy’s Drop played a gig here I would lose my mind.
Liam Bailey? UK Reggae songwriter and singer. Champion
Jordan Rakei? Aussie-Maori songwriter / singer
Khruangbin?
Maribou State? (whole album Kingdoms in Colour is insane)
Jai Paul?
Sofi Tukker?
What else are you loving? Just lookin’ for good vibes! =)
