The Story Stringer, Kilin
from The Intelligently Resigned Show
Adrian is joined by one of the luthiers, Kilin. Don't worry, Adrian didn't know what a luthier was either. We get to learn more about Hawaiian music history and ukuleles than you ever knew you wanted to know. Kilin, an amazing musician in his own right, has dedicated the last several years to learning the history of his favorite guitar, the Martin Dreadnought, and its relation to Hawaii. We learn about some of the ole timey Hawaiian musicians that took Hawaiian music out to the world and how that shaped popular American music more than many people may know. Kilin was so inspired by his research that he started his own non-profit organization, The Kealakai Center for Pacific Strings, to bring more Hawaiian music and its history to the community. https://www.krstrings.com/ #luthier #musician #martinGuitar #dreadknot #hawaiianMusic #ukulele #mexicansInHawaii #paniolo #bluegrass #hawaiianStringBand #hawaiianOverthrow #colinization #kalakaua #kamehameha #LibraryOfCongress #Kealakai #KRstrings
