Kalai! I am totally addicted to this man's music. I have seen him in concert at least 10 times and every time is better than before. He is arguably the most talented and captivating musician we have been blessed with in eons. Another plus is that's he's funny and nice too! Check out his website www.kalai.cc .

Kalai is absolutely incredible. He uses his voice and his guitar in ways I have never heard anyone else use them. His straight acoustic songs are so soothing and comforting, and somehow, with the same instruments, he creates this tribal vibe that makes you feel like you've gone somewhere you've never been before. I would give anything to see him perform... but he never comes out east. :( Someday...

Kalai is the hottest private label out there. I have had this guy at private concerts twice and if you aren't listening to him, you are missing out big time. The dude gots rythm, skills, and amazing vocal talent.

He had hundreds of Songs and compositions by age 20. Though nearly all of Kalai’s work can be found on iTunes and a few other internet locales, his latest national release “Crows Feet” can be found under severe demand in stores everywhere.

Kalai is urban vintage. The Hawaiian Born, Alaska raised, 26 year-old, is an old school young buck with do anything, anytime, at any level, musical talent. Besides being a lyrical BIGfoot, instrumental l y this guy puts the “Z” in skillz. His music ranges coast to coast with soft ballads, edgy blues, straight jazz, acid jazz, and yeah buddy, a little bit of his own thing. One might say you have to hear him to believe it, but chances are, even once you do, you won’t. Just Listen.

Kalai plays great acoustic music. I've seen him live many times and I recommend it to everyone. I'm surprised that he hasn't reached huge popularity, but greatful that he hasn't gone commercial.
