420 Tree: Celebrating pakalolo music from Hawaii

The “sweet grass of the rainforest” has inspired Hawaiian musicians since back in the daze — Eddie Kamae, The Sons of Hawai‘i, Da Blahlas, the Makaha Sons of Ni‘ihau and several more penned songs about the particularly delightful plant.

To celebrate, we're posting pakalolo songs to YouTube all week, featuring tracks from our Hawaiian vinyl crates — some appearing on YouTube for the first time!

We're also hosting an all-vinyl party and pop-up on Sunday, April 23rd at our shop in Honolulu. Here's the details: 

Sunday, April 23rd
AGS Honolulu, 2017 S. King Street
4pm - 8pm
DJs Hanimal Selecta, Miss Lulú, Strongymon
Pop-up by Punchbowl Pipes
Limited AGS merch!

The first two tracks to start the week off are "Sweet Weuweu" by Eddie Kamae and The Sons of Hawaii, and "Amazing Little Grass" by Da Blahlas.
