Kalae - Live at La Selva
Kalae, the Jazzy Hawaiian, explores the intersection of jazz and Hawaiian music, from classic hapa haole tunes to contemporary and original songs. Kalae’s clear tenor voice and the unique instrumentation of his band create surprising and refreshing musical explorations.

On Sept 30, 2012 the Jazzy Hawaiian Band (featuring hula and Tahitian dancers) debuted to a standing-room only crowd at the La Selva Beachclub. This CD features tunes recorded LIVE at La Selva.

Ho’opono​
Kalae’s debut album, Ho’opono, was released in 2008 on ‘Amakua Records.

Says John Berger (Star-Bulletin, Honolulu):
A hapa-haole version of “What A Wonderful World” sets the mood for this first album by singer/musician/song writer Kalae Miles. Miles sings Louis Armstrong’s posthumous hit in Hawaiian rather than the original English, but the popular melody is so well known that it transcends the language barrier.

Miles also includes hapa-haole songs with English lyrics. Acoustic piano and steel guitar provide perfect instrumental accents to his take on “On Lovely Lanikai,” while those same instruments also add traditionalist textures to beautiful renditions of several Hawaiian standards: “Pua Lililehua,” “Hi’ilawe” and “Kalena Kai.”
