"Lokelani's Islanders" was
the first commercially successful Polynesian dance and musician group within the state of California (1962), and it was through
the efforts of Kumu Lokelani that the Hawai'ian culture flourished on the West Coast. Lokelani performed
for many years on the Hawai'i Calls - "Under the Banyan Tree" as well as with Aunty Genoa Keawe, Arthur Godrey, Don Ho,
Bob Hope, her kumu Lena Machado and an array of
world renowned Hawai'ian entertainers. Today Lokelani still performs at private functions and venues.
