Outstanding!

Hula dancer Kamaka and Ukulele musician Ramon were outstanding! They not only accommodated all last-minute changes but also adjusted their rate to fit the client's budget. Adding an extra performer at no charge was beyond generous. Their communication was seamless, and their kind nature made them a joy to work with. The performance exceeded all expectations, truly enhancing the event's atmosphere. They are the best partners a coordinator could ask for. I eagerly look forward to our next collaboration and would give them 6 stars if possible! Mahalo Nui Loa!

Highlight of our Trip...

The performance far exceeded our expectations. It wasn't just ukulele music and hula dancing but a history lesson as well. We expected to sit around and listen while we talked and enjoyed appetizers but instead found ourselves fully engaged in the performance. Beyond the great music, great hula dancing and entertaining stories Ramon and his wife were so very kind. We felt an instant connection to them both as they were so personable and genuine. My family would highly recommend booking Ramon and his amazing wife for a performance you will remember for years to come.

Perfect for multi-generational events

We had a wonderful evening enjoying Hawaiian entrrtainment performed by accomplished musicians and accompanied by a lovely hula dancer. The young adults in our party enjoyed tutoring on the art of hula, and the stories and background details regarding each song played were delightful.

Beautiful entertainment

Ramon and Kamaka and friend came to our Airbnb on my birthday celebration and performed our entertainment. It was such beautiful music with the most sincere and friendly people. They made you feel like Family. And did not seem like hired help. My grandson was mesmerized by kamaka. And she was so patient and loving towards him. Her dancing was beautiful. Ramon's voice was lovely. I could not have asked for a better intimate birthday celebration. I highly recommend them to any large or small group gatherings. Would love to see them here in California.

What to expect

I provide live Hawaiian ukulele music to complement your event. My style is traditional and contemporary Hawaiian music. Check out the video files or visit my webpage to hear samples of my music. I can provide additional musicians for larger events and/or a hula dancer.
I have my own equipment and power source at no additional charge. So there is no need for you to provide either.
I am happy to take requests for special occasions. If I don't already play the song, I will gladly learn it if I have enough time before your event. Feel free to ask.

About

Born and raised on O'ahu, Ramon began playing ukulele in 4th grade. His first paid gig was at 17 playing for a formal dinner at a local McDonalds restaurant, linen tablecloths and all.

In 1996, he moved to the East Coast and began playing music with Halau O ‘Aulani under the direction of Kumu Hula Wayne Panoke. This is where he found his love of Hawaiian music.

Ramon has performed in many well-known venues in Hawai’i, throughout the mainland and internationally including:
- Appearing monthly at Nico’s Pier 38 and Kailua
- Pakele Live
- The Kennedy Center for Performing Arts in Washington DC;
- On the main stage during the opening of the Smithsonian National Museum of American Indians;
- In Reims and Paris, France during the Joan of Arc Festival
- For the Georgia O’Keefe art exhibit at the NY Botanical Garden
- Annually at Mayor’s Cup Regatta for Access Sports America in Boston, MA
- Bangladesh, Katmandu, and Dubai as a Cultural Attaché with the State Department
Check out his website to see when and where you can see and hear him live.
