The new Haole Cats CD "Lei'd Back" is "Highly Recommended." All the songs are vintage classics with "South Sea Lullabies" being my personal favorite. Who wrote this song anyway? The musicianship is top notch and the mixing and mastering process by Pablus is incredible. Great job you guys! Also, Josh, Joe and TJ and very very cool!! I can't to see you guys again at the Hukilau. Keep up the good work!!

Mahalo to everyone for the words of encouragement. We hope everyone who has purchased any of our CD's enjoys the music as much as the folks who have posted feedback here. It's something we love to do, but knowing people enjoy our music makes it even mo' betta!
Looking forward to meeting as many TC'ers as possible at HUKILAU...By that time, with a little luck and some creative scheduling, we'll have a new CD featuring Ukulele arrangements of some great Jazz/Swing standards. A few tunes likely to be included are:
Take The A Train
I'm Beginning To See The Light
All OF Me
Stompin' At The Savoy
Wave
St. Thomas
there are a bunch more, we just have to pick and choose....I'll be sure to keep ya'll updated.

I got all 3 albums, and what a deal!! Have listened to all three and have to send my biggest YEEHAW. The two CD's packed with Hawaiian music are fantastic! I love the vocals and that Hawaiian steel guitar working with that outstanding bass line. Sunday morning, I cued up the Wholly Cats CD and read my morning paper and chilled out to the sound of that old time swing and jazz. Kept my foot taping the entire time!
Thanks for making us the offer! Wish I was in SoCal to check out a live performance!

DA HAOLE KATS ARE OFF-DA-HOOK!!!!!!!!!
met TJ, josh, and joe this weekend; some of the nicest, most down-to-earth, genuine people I've met this side of Okonkuluku.......
And their tunes are mighty catchy as well. glad we got the chance to jam on some non-tiki stuff at Unga Bunga's party pad - that was real fun and well worth it.
thanks for the discs; i'll be passing them along to the other waitiki dudes later this week .....
defintely check these guys out if you're down in Florida; if i could, i'd be there every week!
a hui hou & aloha,
Professah Humming Flower a.k.a Randy of WAITIKI

Absolutely Amazing!!!
Of course, all of the music at Hukilau was tremendous. I think I've listened to the Haole Kats CD that I bought three times today. Gotta Get Me SoMora Dat!
And... For anyone who has not seen these dudes... Nicer, Better, More Fun Fellas don't exist! The fact that the music is so awesome is like incredible icing on a splendid cake! Get to where they are as soon as you can!

Many, many BIG mahalos to all the folks who made our time in Fort Lauderdale at Hukilau 2005 such a wonderful experience! Thank you!
Also, mahalo for buying our CD's! We really appreciate it, and hope that you enjoy the music as much as we did recording it.
There's sooooooo much I want to say about Hukilau, but I'll post that on that thread. Such an amazing and fun time.

Profesa Randy,
It was a stone groove hooking up with you cats at the hotel and watching your shows.... Hope you find the time to get back to Kailua as often as you can and your thoughts on playing traditional music there becomes a reality. Stay warm up there in the big B and if you find yourself in need of some sun & surf get in touch with me or the other Kats !!!
Mahalo
Aloha
Joe
