The Brothers Cazimero

The Brothers Cazimero are consummate performers who have made their indelible imprint on the face of c

ontemporary Hawaiian music. Their talent, longevity and sales success over the past 30 years have placed them

in a league of their own, untouched by any other performer in the history of Hawaiian music.

The early 1970s were a remarkable time as the Hawaiian culture and music began an amazing resurgence in

Hawai‘i. Leading the way down this amazing new path were The Brothers Cazimero, carrying a torch that

sparked a new interest in music performed in the Hawaiian language with a contemporary sound that even

today has never been duplicated.They are masters of their craft – their musicianship and stylish vocals blend

to produce a style that is now part of the fabric of Hawaiian history. Their contribution to Hawaiian music and

dance has continued to show outsiders to these islands as well as indigenous people how important these components

are to the past, present and future of Hawai‘i. The components of the past play an enormous role in all aspects

of The Brothers Cazimero performances. Their presentation of the chants,

dances and songs of their ancestors serve to honor those musicians, composers, teachers and elders who paved the

way for what they are able to accomplish in Hawaiian music today. As they honor the past, so do they continually

look to explore new music and dance forms while remaining true to their heritage.

Robert and Roland have released an unprecedented 36 musical recordings and 3 beautifully visual DVDs.

The album “Some Call It Aloha… Don’t Tell,” released in September 2004, was Grammy nominated

for Best Hawaiian Music Album. Their music has been celebrated around the world and has been licensed for

use in film, television and commercial projects. Caz fans boast of a complete collection of CDs and tapes.

Not only do residents of Hawai‘i find that this music has magical

qualities, but visitors to these islands will take home multiple copies to use for relaxation as they get back in

everyday routines, give to friends and relatives and as living souvenirs of their vacation to this island paradise.

Remarkable entertainers on stage, The Brothers Cazimero achieve a full-bodied sound that emanates from two

traditional instruments, the acoustic bass and a twelve-string guitar. They performed as headliners for twelve years

in the beautiful Monarch Room of the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, and 2005 marks their 28th annual Lei Day Concer

t at the Waikiki Shell with sold out crowds each May 1st. On The Brothers Cazimero stage is always

the native dance, the hula, performed by both men and women.

The Brothers Cazimero have taken the beauty of Hawaiian music and dance for encore performances in

Carnegie Hall in New York City (including a performance with the New York Pops), Wolftrap and

Hollywood Bowl, as well the World Expo in Brisbane, Australia, Hong Kong, Tokyo; and annual performances

in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Seattle to sell out crowds. They have been guest stars each

Christmas in always sold out holiday shows with the Honolulu

The Brothers Cazimero's achievements are not limited to recording and stage. National television credits include

the Today show, PM Magazine, Good Morning America, Real People, Jim Nabors Special from Hawai‘i,

the Miss America Pageant and the Dolly Parton TV special from Hawai‘i. Hawai‘i TV has produced numerous

specials about their career and they have been part of almost every musical showcase that has been broadcast from

Hawaii. Their musical talent, incredible showmanship and infectious humor have bridged cultural gaps that naturally

exist with ethnic music and dance. The aloha spirit that remains an integral part of their entertaining, whether live,

on records or TV, is spreading throughout the global village and with it, a better world is possible.
