    Night time, pretty lady, little bit of a buzz, sand between my toes, waves, salty air, bright stars, huge moon, Kalapana from the car radio...no mortgage, no bills, damn...good times.

    Got introduced to Kalapana by my sister while in college. Saw them in concert at Fresno State Amphitheater in 1978. They were amazing... Best Hawaiian group ever... great memories

      Right on brah! I’m 26 and born and raised in Waimanalo. Hopefully you’ve been able to come back and visit (I’m sure it’s drastically different today). Wherever you are just keep that Aloha in your heart. Hope life’s been good to you my braddahs 🤙🏽💙

    Grew up listening to Kalapana and went to many of their concerts. Just breaks my heart to hear about Malani Bilyeu’s Death. And even worse how Mackey Feary took his own life while in Halawa Prison. Fighting those Demons. I had a pleasure of meeting him personally before I left the Islands and believe me he was the most compassionate person I have met. Rest In Paradise Malani And Mackey. 🙏🕊🖤

    OMG!!!! I was stationed in Hawaii from 1976 to 1983 and was absolutely in love with the music at that time. It was as if a tidal wave washed over the islands and brought a flood of sound to us. Kalapana, Seawind, Celio and Kapono, Country Comfort, Olamano--they all were Kicking!!!! It didn't matter when you turned the radio on, the music flowed. Remember Kamasami Kong and "Whodaguy" Ron Jacobs?? Man I wish I could go back in time and relive those days again.

    I never really listened to Kalapana until one day I listened to Naturally & found myself loving everything about their songs......... lyrics & melodys. The songs alone bring back my greatest memories of my Daddy. Thank you Macky Feary & Kalapana for the great music that I find comfort in when I'm missing my Daddy.

    What makes me most depressed is that Mackey was such a beautiful person and got so screwed over so badly by someone who he loved and could not bear to hang on. Also that he never received the writing praises nor commercial success that Kalapana were due.
    I can't blame him for giving up though this world has some dark forces lurking behind pretty faces, law makers and law enforcement sometimes. He really got a bad deal and his punishment truly did not fit the crime.
    Shameful of both his wife and the system. My only hope is that he is at peace and God's forgiveness was granted for his own suicide.
