During the early 80’s, Kanikapila sessions were founded at 'Pop’s' Gabby Pahinui’s namesake Waimanalo Park Pavilion to feature and perpetuate Gabby’s Hawaiian style kihoalu-slack key music.

It has long been the dream of the Pahinui Ohana to recognize Gabby’s contribution and acknowledge Waimanalo as a focal point of Kihoalu and Hawaiian music by reestablishing these musical gatherings and their ability to perpetuate, and preserve the uniqueness of Hawaii’s musical identity.
