A beautiful woman with a beautiful voice, Emma Veary was popular among locals and visitors alike for her renditions of hapa-haole songs and traditional compositions. Veary began performing as a youth, appearing in children's shows from the age of 5 and in local nightclubs by the time she was a student at Roosevelt High. Her Waikiki shows — from the Monarch Room of the Royal Hawaiian to the showroom at the Halekulani — were packed. She received the Hawai'i Academy of Recording Arts' Lifetime Achievement award in 1994 and now resides in Maui.
While Emma Veary performs at Kanikapila with Poki, the “Lei Ladies” of the Lahaina-Honolua Senior Citizens Club will string fresh flower lei under the shade of the kou trees on the Baldwin Home Museum lawn. The Baldwin Home Museum is located on the corner of Front and Dickenson Street in the heart of historic Lahaina.
Kanikapila with Poki - The Hawaiian Music Series in Lahaina is coordinated by Lahaina Restoration Foundation and sponsored by the County of Maui Office of Economic Development and Hawaii Tourism Authority. |
