Kapena Biography
Kapena, considered to be one of Hawaii’s premier island bands, has more than 20 Island Music CDs to their credit. Although the band has been through some changes, its founding member, Kelly Boy De Lima, is still the bandleader. Kapena continues to be an institution that embraces what islanders fell in love with when fans first heard the unique sound of their “electrifying” Kapena music.
In the early 2000s, Kelly Boy introduced Hawaii to the next generation of Kapena, his three children—Kapena, Kalena, and Lilo. With the next generation came a new, fresh Kapena sound. Kelly Boy’s three children have gained success of their own, writing new original music and being nominated for and winning multiple Na Hoku Hanohano awards.
In October 2017, Kapena released their first full-length album as a family band. The album titled “Palena Ole” won the group four awards at the prestigious Na Hoku Hanohano Awards in May 2018, including Album Of The Year and Group Of The Year. This new Kapena band offers a diverse new package for the old diehard Kapena fans as well as a new generation of Kapena fans.
