Makani E
Hawaiian Entertainment in Bremerton, WA
Why hire Makani E?
If you have ever visited Hawaii, lived in Hawaii, or passed through Hawaii, you know that the music is very unique! We take you back to Hawaii with our music. We play traditional, contemporary, and classical Hawaiian & Polynesian music. Our music includes many cover songs by well known artists throughout Hawaii. We add a bit of flair in our music style, and interact with the audience using impromptu humor and stories about our years in Hawaii. We will provide a custom show just for your event! We can provide hula dancers only upon request.
This Duo Is Great!
I hired Makani E for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. They were married in Hawaii and we wanted Hawaiian music. We were so pleased with how Jim & Rozz catered and interacted with the audience. Even though it wasn't Hawaiian, it was fun when they taught us how to do the electric slide. Their music is great and we recommend them to everyone.
