***The new Christmas songbook Mele Kalikimaka is now ready to be downloaded in .pdf format from the DOWNLOAD page.***
***NOTICE***
March 15, 2018: Aloha! Some of you may have noticed a few changes on our main page. There was a “glitch” in a recent software update that caused some tabs that are no longer used to “magically” re-appear. This has been corrected, and as before the website is free to all users and there is no need to “subscribe”. Our apologies for any confusion. Mahalo!
***CORRECTION MADE***
Jan. 13, 2018: We have found our first typographical error in He Ahu Mele. In the song Kanaka Waiwai on page 67, the chord G7 appears twice on the 2nd line of the 3rd verse. The second G7 is the correct one. The download file has been corrected. If you downloaded your copy before Jan. 13th, you can either white out or cross out the extra G7 or download the corrected page HERE. Of course you can also re-download the complete book on the DOWNLOAD page. Sorry for any inconvenience.
