| TO BUY MAKENA'S CD, VISIT ~HOT STUFF~ Celebrating 28years serving the community, offering Funny, Loving & Exotic Gifts & Greetings
Watch MAKENA (pronounced mah-keh-nah) in concert on Logo, the latest network from MTV! MAKENA stars in "L.A. Women's Fest," a concert documentary premiering Thursday, 1/25/07, at 8:00 p.m. Pacific! To see the 90 min. TV special featured on the Logo website click here . MAKENA is the acoustic partnership of two girls born and raised in Hawaii, who took a chance on "the mainland" 5 years ago, and are now beginning to see it pay off. Their homemade recordings and growing name caught the attention of Grammy-winning label (Best Hawaiian Album, 2006), which signed them to a record deal in mid-2006; their first album with the label is self-titled. As a featured act at L.A. Women's Fest in Hollywood, they star in a special on LOGO TV, the latest MTV network, premiering 1/25/07 at 8:00pm Pacific; and, MAKENA was also one of five acts from around the nation chosen for The '06 Emerging Artist Showcase presented by Olivia, the premier vacation company for women. MAKENA means "abundance" in Hawaiian, and it's the reason Siena Lee & Toast Tajiri chose it as their name. Nurturing an outlook and energy that is optimistic, yet realistic, compassionate, and respectful of humanity's collective deeper wisdom, is their main hallmark in both music and on their podcast. The Girl Meets Girl podcast is where Siena & Toast have fun talking about their experiences and lessons learned as indie music artists, helping animals, being Asian-Pacific-Islanders, and the occasional rant or amusing observation on social/cultural issues. Siena & Toast focus on gentle harmonies in their music and relationship. Concerts4Cats is their labor of love helping abandoned adult and senior cats in need of medical care. MAKENA is sponsored by Sam Ash Music. Visit them at MAKENAmusic.com. Visit them at www.MAKENAmusic.com |
