Keahiwai is a celebrated Hawaiian vocal duo blending contemporary Hawaiian pop with lush harmonies. Comprised of Mailani Makainai and Lei Melket, the group became a prominent force in the local scene with a string of Na Hoku Hanohano nominations and wins. Though they paused as a duo in 2009, they reunited for two sold-out shows at Blue Note Hawaii in March 2023, reminding fans why their harmonies resonated across Hawaii and beyond. This page shares their story, key releases, and what to expect on the road.
