Abrigo Ohana

Three little kids, one HUGE Sound!

About Me

This band was formed in 2005 when seven year old Emily picked up the bass guitar to play along with her big brother Timi. At the age of ten, Timi became the head of the band holding the lead instrument, ukulele, and the lead vocal. Three year old Quinn handled percussion for the group. Like magic, their little band was born.
Since then, they have infused their music with the addition of Hawaiian Slack key guitar, the vocal style of falsetto, and the traditional sound of the pakini bass. Focusing on the greats of Hawaiian music, they bring the old style back to life. Today, their music includes a mix of traditional Hawaiian music, some classic rock, and even a little reggae. The recordings you hear on this site have been created at home by Timi.
