Amy Hanaiali`i Gilliom
Amy Hanaiali`i Gilliom is a true superstar entertainer that has won the hearts of many with the resurrection of Ha`i (Hawaiian female falsetto singing). Amy has been classically trained earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Musical Theater and is passionate about Jazz and R&B. Combining these artistic styles make her a fluently diverse entertainer. 
A multi-Na Hoku Hanohano Award winner (Hawaii’s version of the Grammys), her last four albums have won her Song of Year, Female Vocalist of the Year, Hawaiian, Album of the Year and Group of the Year. Her first album "Hawaiian Tradition" placed her high on the World Billboard Charts, a first for an album written solely in the Hawaiian language.

Amy has toured extensively through Japan, Tahiti, and the US Mainland. She has performed during the halftime show on Monday Night Football and earlier this year was a featured performer at the internationally televised NFL ProBowl Half Time show in Honolulu. Other recent projects include filming the movie "Tom Cats" with Revolution Entertainment; working at home with "Baywatch Hawai`i" and singing the title track on another motion picture entitled "Moonglow".

Aside from entertaining, Amy has been active in lobbying the State Senate concerning publishing and copyright benefits for all artists within the State of Hawai`i. Amy is the granddaughter of Jennie Napua Woodd, whose many credits include being the choreographer on all of the major Hawaiian motion pictures in the 1930’s and 40’s while in New York City, Hollywood and Las Vegas. While performing at the Lexington Hotel in New York City, Jennie met Amy's grandfather, Lloyd B. Gilliom, who played first trumpet with Swing and Sway with Sammy Kaye and also played with famed big band leader Tommy Dorsey.

Experiencing Amy in concert or listening to her music truly validates her as a Hawaiian woman whose compositions reflect her journey through life, her genealogy and her love for the Hawaiian language and culture.

For the second year in a row, Amy Hanaiali`i Gilliom (along with Willie K.) is headlining the world’s largest and most successful Hawaiian music tour 


Willie K Bio:


Willie K is considered by critics and fans to be one of the best live entertainers in the World. A true Hawaiian superstar, Willie Kahaiali`i (a.k.a.Willie K.) who was raised on Maui has been playing music and entertaining audiences since the age of 10. His father Manu Kahaiali`i, one of Hawaii's most respected musicians, recruited Willie and his brothers to perform in his band. From the very beginning, Willie was influenced by a myriad of musical genres and performers. From the Hawaiian, Jazz, and early R&B he heard at his father's side, to the sounds emanating from the radio from musical giants such as B.B. King, Santana, Jimi Hendrix, and Willie Nelson. It is no wonder why Willie has evolved into such an eclectic and charismatic singer/songwriter/entertainer. 
Willie K’s first three albums changed the direction of contemporary Hawaiian music. He swept up Na Hoku Hanohano Awards (Hawaii’s version of the Grammys) from the Hawaii Academy of Recording Arts, and continued to record music. Willie has also had his records chart high on BillBoard Magazine’s Worldbeat charts. He has also produced three albums with Amy Hanaiali'i which earned 2 more Na Hoku Hanohano Awards for Producer of the year.

Willie K. has played with and/or opened for such musical giants as B.B. King, Santana, Al DiMeola, Willie Nelson, Prince, Crosby, Stills and Nash, Elvin Bishop, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, Mick Fleetwood, George Benson and Jimmy Buffett, just to name a few. Willie has garnered national attention with appearances on VH-1 "100 Greatest Love Songs", the TV program “Extra”, performing the halftime show on Monday Night Football's Jets vs. Raiders game, and most recently the featured performer at this year’s internationally televised NFL ProBowl Half Time show in Honolulu.

For the second year in a row, Willie K. (along with Amy Hanaiali`i Gilliom) is headlining the world’s largest and most successful Hawaiian music tour
