Ki ho'alu (Slack Key) is the name for the finger-style guitar tradition unique to Hawaii. First introduced the island culture by Hawaiian cowboys in the early 1800s, this evocative world music is characterized by a variety of tunings and the wealth of deep feelings each individual artist brings to the music.

cultural legacy.  Read more here...
