Kolohe Kai at Marymoor Live

What Aloha Means

Kolohe Kai is a whole vibe! Fronted by Roman De Peralta, this island rooted group has been spreading good vibes since 2009. Roman started writing music in high school, blending reggae, pop and island rhythms with lyrics that come straight from the heart. It didn’t take long for before the sound caught fire. Kolohe Kai, meaning ‘Rascal Ocean’, perfectly reflects Roman De Peralta’s fun-loving spirit and deep connection to the ocean and island life!

His debut album “This Is the Life” dropped in 2009 and blew up with tracks like “Cool Down” and “Ehu Girl”, which became instant island hits! Since then, Kolohe Kai’s been riding the wave of success with hits like “First True Love”, “Heartstrings”, “Natural High” and “Catching Lightning”. His Music isn’t just catchy, it tells a story about love, growth and keeping it real, all wrapped up in that signature island reggae sound that makes you want to sway along. 

What’s cool about Kolohe Kai is that Roman De Peralta stayed true to himself and his roots. Even as his popularity grew, he kept his sound authentic, uplifting, clean and family friendly, which makes his music perfect for all ages. He has toured all over the U.S and internationally, playing at sold out shows and festivals, yet still carries that humble, aloha filled energy that fans know and love him for. Lately, his newer songs like “When Rain Falls” and “Isn’t She Lovely” (His Stevie wonder cover) show how much he has evolved as an artist whilst still staying true to that island soul. 

His concerts feel like one big jam session with your closest friends, where you can dance, sing along, and just feel the positive vibes.
