Aloha means Hello in awesome.



"See me welling in your eyes, a field of fireflies"

The instant it entered my ears, the sound of Aloha changed the way I listened to music forever. Beautiful melodies, vivid lyrics, pop sensibility with a dash of avant-garde jazz. Slightly off-kilter yet focused. And freaking xylophone sealed the deal. Anyone who sees Aloha live will tell you it's one of the best shows they've ever seen. Listening to Aloha opened my eyes to Polyvinyl Records and countless other bands who have similarly impacted me since. It pushed the boundaries and for that, I'm grateful.
