Hawai‘i Music Industry News, Reviews and Opinion from Keola Donaghy
I received a note from Auntie Maria at Mele.com yesterday, informing me (and others) that she was retiring effective April 15, 2008. That does not mean the end of the best Hawaiian music store on the net. Mele.com has been acquired by Fred Krauss of Punahele Productions, which means it will continue to be the best Hawaiian music store on the net. Congrats to Maria on her retirement and to Fred on his new venture.
Mele.com will go down on April 15, but will be back online my May 1.
