Ka Pua Ui -- A Tribute to Brudda Iz
Our Ka Pua Ui live video from Locust Valley, NY, captured our tribute to the Great Brudda Iz version of this song.
The song, written by Bina Mossman, sings of The Beautiful Flower of the heavens, a sweetheart who is treasured, as a spectacular garlands of Hawaiian flowers.
The song's surprising chord changes and exciting rhythms make for an enjoyable roller coaster ride for the musicians playing it!
We add in lots of freeform ukulele improvisation to our tunes, as you'll hear and see in this short clip.
