[MUSIC] Most Maui residents have already heard one of the island’s best bands, Lahaina Grown, at bars, on the radio and probably for some, in backyards and at barbeques. They’ve been playing together for the last 10 years, since the four original members formed the band in 1994. Sharing an interest in music while attending Lahainaluna High School, Kapali, Albert, Deason and Jayson began playing, calling themselves Nahe Nahe. Since then the name and the music has changed and the band has gotten more and more recognition. In 2002, Lahaina Grown won second place in Oahu’s Battle of the Bands, opening new doors to success. They’ll be releasing their self-titled, self-produced debut album this weekend, with already crowd-popular songs like “Lahaina Grown,” “Lady Honokohau” and “He Iwi.” Their skills and dedication have generated a large fan base on several islands and will continue to grow with the release of this album. Lahaina Grown’s music comes from the heart and gives listeners a relaxed feeling “with a message to all,” they say—“Let the music touch your soul.” [Gabrielle Poccia]]
