Martin, the youngest son of the late Gabby "Pops" Pahinui, inherited his golden, yet savory voice from his father. His entire life has been filled with music, and surprising, but true, is the fact that what you are about to hear is Martin's first solo musical adventure.
Martin recorded with the Peter Moon Band for many years, and his lead vocals on the giant hits "Flying" and "Cane Fire" makes his voice recognizable to everyone in Hawai'i. He then joined his brothers Bla and Cyril, legacies in their own right, to record the album "The Pahinui Brothers" in 1992. The album was released by Private Music nationally and enjoyed success both across the U.S. and at home in Hawai'i. Band members are... Martin Pahinui, Al Kaai, Anita Pahinui, Darrell Aquino

One of Hawaiian music's great singers and guitarists, Martin Pahinui is a part of the legendary music family, headed by his father, Gabby Pahinui, which carries on the slack key guitar tradition. Whereas George Winston's Dancing Cat has heretofore focused on acoustic slack key guitar, Martin Pahinui's label debut features his voice and guitar as well as some slide guitar and backing players. Pahinui's gentle voice is as warm and mellow as a luau fire with yodeling falsetto jumps added for emphasis. The album's overall tone ranges from playful ("C-A-T, Pöpoki Spells Cat") to sad ("Lei No Ka' iulani"), with outside elements like country music making its presence felt ("Waikapü") as well. To the untrained ear, "Moloka'I Nui A Hina" is the strangest-sounding tune, seemingly influenced by barbershop quartets. Overall Ho' Olohe will offer many an interesting new perspective on this music--whereas these different elements come out in the artists' live shows, the Dancing Cat albums tend to be adhere to a more studied aesthetic. Not so here! --Tad Hendrickson
