Rylee Anuheake’alaokalokelani Jenkins is an accomplished Native Hawaiian, contemporary singer/songwriter with an easygoing island style from the island of Maui. She made her debut in 2009 and just a year later won two prestigious Nā Hōkū Hanohano awards for most promising artist and contemporary album of the year. This mother of one has performed, toured, and shared stages with artists such as Bruno Mars, SOJA, Kimié, Tenelle, Fiji, Jack Johnson, Cas Haley, Ziggy Marley, and our past podcast guest Jake Shimabukuro. She is one of the top musical artists from Hawai’i of all-time! In this episode we talk about her rise as a musician, the impact of the pandemic on her life, life struggles, identity as a Hawaiian, and so much more. Enjoy!
