The Hula Monsters at the May Tree of Life Cafe in Rockville

The Hula Monsters can be described as a swing band with a Hawaiian flavor. Their repertoire includes Hawaiian, rockabilly, blues, country and jazz standards - all with the Hula Monster Hawaiian accent. They are a band of accomplished, seasoned professional musicians. Based in the Washington/ Baltimore area, they've played from upstate New York to the Carolinas and Tennessee. It may be difficult to categorize their music, but the common thread is fun!

The Hula Monsters have won many "Wammies", the annual awards given by the Washington Area Music Association (WAMA), including "Best World Music Group" (in 2005, 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999 and 1994). They have appeared at the Birchmere (Alexandria), Rams Head Tavern (Annapolis), IOTA (Arlington), and The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts (Washington, DC), along with many other club appearances. Join us for an evening of eclectic music with a Hawaiian flair!

Featuring a cameo appearance by local singer-songwriter Lee Cathey.
