Review by Christine M.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on May 31, 2012•From Santa Barbara, CA

Hi, Kaleo was very easy to work with and incredibly responsive during the wedding planning phase. We never had the opportunity to meet on the actual wedding day (I was a busy bride!), but the music was amazing, beautiful and exactly what we were looking for. I received a lot of compliments from family and friends about our ceremony and cocktail hour music as well. Perfect music for the perfect day! Thanks Kaleo & Bill! Christine

Kaleo has a beautiful voice; terrific, talented muscicians on several Hawaiian instruments; and a beautiful, talented Hawaiian Hula dancer (Leona). He gave us everything we requested and was flexible with our birthday party program. He was prompt, professional, and friendly. I highly recommend Kaleo.

Kaleo, I want to thank you for the wonderful music you played at our wedding. People are still telling us how much they loved your music. It set an amazing tone for the wedding and I really can't thank you enough (and am sorry I didn't get to thank you face to face on wedding night). Please feel free to forward my email address onto anyone with questions - I'd be happy to give them any information they are seeking. I would recommed you and your band without hesitation. You were truly a pleasure to work with and are an incredible musician. Mahalo Nui Loa, JR

Celebration•Reviewed on August 23, 2010•From Santa Barbara, CA

Kaleo's contacts and set-up before the event were comfortable and accommodating, and the performance itself very professional. This was the perfect group for our event and helped us make 100 or so people really happy. We highly recommend Kaleo Na'ea and would be glad to discuss our experience with anyone considering the act for their event.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on March 21, 2010•From Los Angeles, CA

Exceptionally pleased with Kaleo and his music. He provided the perfect evening of Hawaiian music, answering requests, knowing dozens of songs, and letting us all sing along. After listening to Kaleo we all wanted to return to the Islands. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants the perfect evening of top Hawaiian music and entertainment.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 19, 2010•From Los Angeles, CA

650 Characters max!? Can't be done. 650 words are not enough. So I'll use just two words, 12 characters to describe, Kaleo Na'ea of Kaua'i performance at my 50th birthday party. Pitch Perfect!

Wedding•Reviewed on January 18, 2010•From Santa Barbara, CA

Kaleo is a talented, professional performer. He was exceptionally accommodating and organized as my fiance and I planned our wedding ceremony music. Kaleo was a perfect fit with our Santa Barbara beach wedding. His ukulele playing and vocals sounded beautifully romantic on the shore, and his band livened up our cocktail hour with their Hawaiian-themed music. Kaleo's repertoire of tropical music is unmatched and his authentic delivery was the icing on our beach wedding cake!

Kaleo Naea was superb! We had a tropical wedding theme and he created the ambiance for our day. Kaleo truly set the tone for our event. Our friends and family are still talking about the beautiful Hawaiian music. We highly recommend Kaleo to everyone considering him! He will make your celebration a memorable one. Tom and Jennifer

Wedding•Reviewed on October 16, 2009•From Santa Barbara, CA

Kaleo and his steel guitarist were the musicians for our barefoot beach wedding in Santa Barbara, CA. Kaleo blew the Conch Shell as I came to the edge of the sand, and to hear him play Ize's "Somewhere over the Rainbow" as my daughter walked me down the sand aisle took my breath away. We loved the Hawaiian Wedding Song during our ceremony, and "Honeymoon Hotel" for our recessional was perfect - fun and happy go-lucky! He played so many of our favorite Hawaiian songs during the cocktail hour including Little Grass Shack which Bill's Dad always sang after his days at the Royal Hawaiian in the '40s. Kaleo made our wedding day!

Wedding•Reviewed on March 4, 2009•From Laguna Beach, CA

Kaleo is truly a kind soul, and an outstanding musician! He even let my husband play the ukulele with him on a few songs. I would highly recommend Kaleo for your event, as he is excellent on his own or with a band. He showed up early, and accommodated our needs. We also listen to his CD all the time, as it is very peaceful music that will take you back to the islands! Thanks Kaleo!

Kaleo Naea was wonderful! He was professional, talented, and helped us achieve the wedding we had been dreaming of. All of our guests loved his music as well, and we are still receiving compliments on how great he was! Thank you so much for everything! You have such a beautiful talent, and we will be forever grateful!

I was thoroughly pleased with Kaleo. He made our birthday party unique and special. We frequent Hawaii and Kaleo was as talented as any entertainer we have seen on the islands.

Kaleo was extremely easy to work with and was very accommodating with my special requests. We would certainly hire him again should the opportunity arise. Thank you so much for helping to make my brother's wedding an occasion to remember. Your music and relaxed personality helped set the tone for the whole day.

Celebration•Reviewed on August 6, 2010•From El Segundo, CA

Kaleo was accomodating. When the the payment agreement changed (payment could not be made until one week after the performance instead of the same day) at the last second, Kaleo quickly understood the underlying reasons (federal government vendor payment protocol) and graciously accepted the change.
