Hawaii was admitted to the Union as the 50th state on this date in 1959. So today we're taking requests that have anything to do with The Aloha State. Share a song and we'll play a set.

Of course, the people of Hawaii have been in our hearts and minds since the wildfires that devastated parts of Maui earlier this month. We have information on how to help here.

Hear your requests weekdays after 9 a.m.
Today's set:

  • Israel Kamakawiwo'ole "Over the Rainbow"
  • Don Ho "Tiny Bubbles"
  • Elvis Presley "Rock-A-Hula Baby"
  • The Ventures "Hawaii Five-O"
  • Leon Redbone with Ringo Starr "My Little Grass Shack"
  • John Cruz with Jack Johnson & Jackson Browne "Island Style"

Weekdays at Noon
