If you haven't listened to the Hawaiian Concert Guide podcast yet, you've been missing out on some great Hawaiian music and artist interviews! Take a listen to this past episode where HCG host Piko catches some of the performers at the 2009 Aloha Falsetto Festival like Bryan Tolentino, Richard Ho'opi'i and Leokane Pryor and also gets a few bootleg recordings from inside the auditorium with his iPhone (which sounded great!)
Piko created the podcast with the main purpose of getting the word out about Hawaiian entertainers performing off-island and around the world while at the same time getting their music out there for new listeners to discover. He likes to play an artist's whole CD a few tracks at a time from week to week. His co-host Puni is a wonderful companion to the show - a wealth of information on Hawaiian legends, hula personalities and island music, she adds a lot of depth to the show, for sure.
Check it out! They record the podcast every Sunday evening starting at 8pm PST and you can tune in at that time and listen live. Watch a live video feed and join other listeners/viewers in the live chat room where you can even send in a request for a song!
