Na Leo Lani brought our best Magic Kingdom energy to rehearsal last week with a big helping of rainbows, and we marked Pam’s September birthday with a rousing rendition of Happy Birthday — and MANY MORE! The belated honor made it all the more special. 😉
If you love the magic of song with women who know how to make every rehearsal a good-time opportunity, come join us on Wednesday evenings for barbershop harmony, laughter, and fun!
The ladies of Na Leo Lani never let a holiday go by without marking it in a special way, and this year’s Veterans’ Day was no different! Rocking our best stars and stripes attire, we sang in remembrance of those who have fought and died defending the values of equality, humanity, and justice under law, and we sang in celebration of the millions of hardworking individuals from all corners of the planet who serve the U.S. with honor, both in military uniform and as essential workers who make our economy hum. As women of all races, ethnicities, and faiths, we know well that harmony begins with listening — and we honor that outlook every week with song.
We had a small but feisty rehearsal this week as a number of our members were out sick, including our Director, Chris.
Those who felt up to it came on Wednesday masked and practiced social distancing as we continued preparing for our upcoming 50th anniversary celebration on August 23.

Sending lots of get-well-energy, throat lozenges, and love to our members who are recovering this week.
Late July is the time to strut our laid-back summer attitude, and no one does that better than Na Leo Lani. We rocked our summertime spirit this week and welcomed Noel and Pam. So lovely to sing with you again. 🤩
Less than a month to go before our 50th Anniversary celebration! Have you bought your tickets yet? If not, click here for info.
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.
Our Year of the Snake-themed Guest Night last week was so much fun, we were still basking in good feelings the next day. From sssnake vocal warmups to a high-spirited Chinese Zodiac game, we sang, hissed, squeaked, and belly-laughed the whole evening.
We were joined by five great guests whose vocal prowess and enthusiasm put us all in high spirits.
It’s muʻumuʻu month here in Hawaiʻi nei, so we sang and celebrated in full dress finery, joined by special guests in the bari section! Enjoy these pics and video clip of our rainbow-hued rendition of Danny Couch’s beautiful lullaby, “These Islands.”
. . . and polishin’ our nails!
National Hat Day brought out the tops in all of us at rehearsal this week, as we welcomed in the New Year with song, swagger, and a whole range of light-hearted headwear.
If you’re looking for a great group to help lift your mood every week, look no further than the lovely ladies of Na Leo Lani! We have an upcoming Guest Night on Wednesday, January 29 — see HERE for details. We look forward to singing with you.
We were thrilled to be joined at last week’s rehearsal by Sounds of Aloha bass Iska R., accompanied by lovely vocalist Kaori.
Na Leo Lani always welcomes visitors, potential members, and singers passing through town to come check us out at our weekly rehearsals. See our Calendar of Events and Join Us! pages for info on our rehearsal schedule and how to find us. We have a guest night coming up on January 29 — that’s a great opportunity to see what we’re about — but guests are also welcome any time. Whether you have never sung before outside of your car, are a singer curious about a cappella barbershop harmony, a returning member, or a Sweet Adeline simply passing through town, we look forward to singing with you!
We all know the holiday season can be hard work, but there’s no reason it can’t be fun at the same time! As these snapshots and video clip from our recent rehearsal show, the women of Na Leo Lani are serious about music, but we always make time for laughter as well.
