Molokai, HI. “Hawaii is considered the melting pot of the
world and my music reflects the many cultures and musical styles
that have made its way to this tropical paradise,” states Kalama
who sites his major musical influences as Hawaii locals Jack
Johnson, Makey Feary and Henry Kapono ,as well as world-wide
musical icons such as Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, Whitney

Scotty had a near fatal accident while surfing. He fell on a
wave and hit the bottom and damaged his spinal cord leaving him
temporarily paralyzed.
The accident happened at the beginning of March and Scotty is
improving far better than anyone expected, but he is by no means
out of the woods yet. He has a long road to recovery and he needs
our help.
Scotty is an active member of the Surfrider Foundation, South
Florida Longboard Association, Christian Surfers.
These events are free and we even supply the bags and gloves.
They're an easy way to do something good for our beaches and
ocean and to raise public awareness of issues like littering and
protection of our marine resources. Students can receive
community service hours credits for this activity.
