Mikilani Fo, "Two Shadows On The Sand". Music from one of my favorite Hawaiian artists, Mikilani Fo. A woman who's voice is very seldom heard. Why? Because she died on stage, in Reno, Nevada at the age of 35 in 1959. A candle that burned very brightly but for all too brief a time. In addition to having a classic Hawaiian voice she could play many instruments but was most famous for being one of the few woman steel guitar players of her era.
