Musician

The WAITIKI 7 is a modern Exotica supergroup that blends jazz with global influences to create an immersive sound. Rooted in Hawaiʻi’s golden age of Waikiki, Exotica was pioneered by musicians like Martin Denny and Arthur Lyman, and The WAITIKI 7 continues that tradition while redefining the genre for today’s audiences.

Composed of conservatory-trained musicians, including GRAMMY winners and symphony performers, the band has spent 20 years preserving and advancing Exotica. Their accolades include JazzWeek chart-topping releases, Na Hoku Hanohano Award nominations, and features in NPR, JazzTimes, Downbeat, and Jazziz.
