Playlist - May 31, 2013

Today's broadcast featured many songs from winners of the 2013 Na Hoku Hanohano Awards.

"Aloha Kaua`i" brings you the music of Hawai`i -- from yesterday, today, and tomorrow -- culling from my personal library of hundreds of vinyl albums, audio cassettes and CDs. The broadcasts are live on Kaua`i Community Radio every Thursday and Friday 7-9am (HST). On Kaua`i, tune your radio to 90.9FM (north shore), 92.7FM (Moloa`a and Anahola), 91.9FM island-wide.

"Aloha Kaua`i" broadcasts live online, too -- listen at kkcr.org.
