In this week’s Little Grass Shack, Island Emery guides listeners on a musical and cultural journey through the heart of Hawai‘i. Blending classic island melodies with rich storytelling, Emery highlights the legacy of Queen Ka‘ahumanu, whose courage reshaped Hawaiian society, and explores the sacred Kohala Coast, birthplace of King Kamehameha the Great. Between songs that evoke the rhythm of island life, Emery shares reflections on the aloha spirit, the evolution of Hawaiian cuisine—from poi to kālua pig—and timeless lessons of kindness, respect, and community.

Each segment flows with the warmth of island hospitality, inviting listeners from Las Vegas to the Ninth Island and beyond to “live aloha and aloha will live with you.”
