Hawaiian music, also known as "Hawaiian music tradition," is a genre characterized by its distinctive ukulele and steel guitar-driven sound, often accompanied by gentle, swaying rhythms and soothing vocal harmonies. Originating in the early 20th century, Hawaiian music evolved from traditional chant and hula music, blending indigenous, Asian, and American influences. The genre gained popularity in the 1950s and 1960s, with the rise of artists who popularized the "Hawaiian sound" globally. Hawaiian music is deeply rooted in the islands' cultural heritage, reflecting the history, mythology, and values of Native Hawaiians. It has influenced various genres, including country, folk, and pop, while maintaining its unique identity through its emphasis on storytelling, poetic lyrics, and traditional instrumentation. The genre's modern era has seen a resurgence of innovation, incorporating contemporary styles while respecting its traditional roots, resulting in a rich and captivating sound that continues to enchant audiences worldwide.
