“The pandemic taught us to take what’s most important and to mālama,” said the Hawai’i Academy of Recording Arts’ Board of Governors. “A reset is always necessary to bring everything back into focus.
“Go back to the beginning to where it all started and mālama the foundation that nurtured you. Returning to the source means taking a deep look into yourself, your work, your music, your soul. For our recording arts community we are excited to be able to celebrate together in the theme of “E Ho‘i i Ka Piko, Return to the Core.”
