What a party!

Aug24

What an extraordinary day we had this past Saturday, August 23 celebrating Na Leo Lani’s Golden Anniversary. Fifty years — WOW!!!!!

Thank you to all who attended, and mahalo nui loa to Harris United Methodist Church for hosting us! A million thanks as well to the dozens of volunteers whose hard work helped us pull off this once-in-a-lifetime event. We could not have done it without you.

More thank yous to the individuals who so generously gave of their time will follow soon, along with photos from the event.

For now, here’s one from our rehearsal prior to the show. Golden indeed!

Looking glam!

Happy Birthday, Wonder Women!

Jul18

Na Leo Lani members never cease to amaze. What’s our secret to gorgeous and graceful aging? Barbershop harmony, of course!! Whether we are soaring on the high notes or maintaining a strong foundation on those oh-so-low bass notes, Na Leo Lani’s commitment to a cappella music keeps us young, healthy and fit!

See our May, June, and July birthday girls —JoAnne, Charley, Arlette, Jojo, and Wally — who comprise just a few of our NLL wonder women!

If you are interested in seeing what Na Leo Lani is all about, come to one of our fun and lively rehearsals — weekly on Wednesdays from 6 to 9 p.m. Find out more here.

Lookin’ good, ladies!

Lei Day is May Day

May4

Freshly back from our Sweet Adelines regional convention in Nevada, the women of Na Leo Lani celebrated our return to rehearsal on the first day of May — Lei Day in Hawai’i.

Joining us as a special guest was the multitalented musical director, educator, and accompanist Phil Hidalgo, who helped us learn the group song for the Ke Kani O Ke Kaiāulu Community Chorus Festival.

Thank you, Phil!
Flowers and lei to mark the holiday.

We also belatedly celebrated our April birthday gals. Happy birthday, Coralyn!

Time to Sing in the New Year!

Jan7

Put away those sparkly lights, holiday hats and festive decorations — it’s back to rehearsal this week and time to SING IN THE NEW YEAR! Whether you are a member coming back after our two-week break, a prospective member, or a singing sister just passing through town, please see our Calendar of Events for our January rehearsal times and dates.

In the meantime, here’s a toast to our December birthday gals — Hauʻoli Lā Hānau! – we love you lots!

Hip hip hooray for our December birthday celebrants, including Yvonne in absentia!

Birthdays, holiday hats, and more

Dec1

Na Leo Lani members will sing anytime, anywhere, at the drop of a hat — and, more often than not, we do so while donning a hat! This week we were arrayed in a medley of holiday finery with blinking light leis, Santa hats, and cake crowns, while our November birthday girl, Rosie, joined in the fun of a rousing birthday salute.

Come check out our lively weekly rehearsals, where we always find reasons to celebrate, regardless of the season.

Birthday serenades are the best!
