It’s a chilly weekend back East and the weather pattern of above-average temps has finally broken here in the Valley of the Sun. Looking for a sound to bring lovely thoughts of flowers, sunshine, and ocean? One of my favorite female vocalists is Hawaiian singer Robi Kahakalau. She has sung with the Hawaiian Style Band and others, and I find her voice a breath of fragrant air whenever I hear it. Here are a few samples for you to enjoy:

No Ke Ano Ahiahi is one song she’s quite well known for. You can’t listen to this song and stay in a bad mood! And it sounds just as good live – I just love her smiling eyes.

Pi’i Mai Ka Nalu is another.

Himene Tatarahapa makes you wish you were back in the islands watching the ocean and sipping on a Mai Tai.

I love Deeper In Love with Hawaiian Style Band. Her voice is so distinctive, it makes you want to fall in love all over again.

I guarantee anything you hear from “Sistah Robi” is gonna cheer you up no matter what kind of day you are having. She’s a true Hawaiian treasure.
