HALAU KU MANA PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOL

YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN A PROJECT QUITE LIKE THIS!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Halau Ku Mana Public Charter School is proud to announce the release of their double CD compilation album, MANA MAOLI Volumes II “InnoNative” & III “Change Is Coming”. 100% of the proceeds go to support Halau Ku Mana and the alliance of all twelve culture, community, and ‘aina-based
charter schools, collectively known as Na Lei Na’auao.
Filled with 150 minutes of original songs from the creative minds of our students, underground and professional artists, slam poets, oli, and a video from the community of Halau Ku Mana, MANA MAOLI Volumes II & III feature some of Hawaii’s best musicians from all genres of music. This one of a kind
compilation contains studio tracks from artists such as JACK JOHNSONS, JOHN CRUZ, PAULA FUGA and OSHEN.

It also has many “underground" bonus clips of originals and freestyles, from both professional and backyard artists. These clips are LIVE, RAW, REAL, UNMIXED, UNPOLISHED, & UNPLANNED, providing you with a refreshing chance to hear the beautiful voices and talents that we all know, as well as those that Hawaii and people in the World music scene have yet to hear.

This limited first edition is available only at the Na Lei Na’auao charter schools, or online at www.halaukumana.org and CDBaby.com.

MANA MAOLI Volumes II & III embody the diversity of musical styles and messages from Hawaii and are held together by a common ground amongst the 240 artists…positive music and support for Hawaiian ‘Education with Aloha’. Show your support and purchase your Mana Maoli CD set today at any
one of the twelve schools of Na Lei Na’auao or visit us online at www.halaukumana.org.

THIS IS MAOLI MUSIC!
