Mango Season
Based in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi, Mango Season goes from acoustic island jazz to soulful & funky in just one set. They mix up a swingin' lead singer, vintage soul, jazz infused harmonies, and a juicy groove laid down by a mean rhythm section; all topped off with a sizzling saxophone. Mango Season includes some of Honolulu’s best professional musicians, all led by the husband and wife duo Curtis & Annie Kamiya (guitar & vocals).
Mango Season is a Nā Hōkū Hanahano award nominee for best R&B album, and also performed for the live TV broadcast. Mango Season was a featured performer with the Honolulu Museum of Art’s “Music Of Hawaiʻi” series at The Doris Duke Theater, is a recurring main stage showstopper at the world famous Blue Note Jazz Club, and has performed three sold-out shows at Hawaiʻi Public Radio's Atherton Theater.
Mango Season is also Honolulu’s premier wedding and event band, providing high-energy music for many hundreds of weddings and corporate events.
