Tavana McMoore is a multi-instrumentalist from the island of O’ahu. He is a one-man band who uses electronic drum triggers to lay down a variety of grooves with his feet to accompany himself on guitar, banjo, lap steel, or ukulele, while singing soulful, island-inspired rock and blues. His album, Aloha Spirit” was a Nā Hōkū Hanohano award nominee for best contemporary album of the year in 2018. He has been the supporting act for Alabama Shakes, Shakey Graves, Xavier Rudd, Jenny Lewis, Julian Marley, and Kaleo to name a few. In 2009, Eddie Vedder invited him to sing Hawaii 78 with him at the Hawaii theatre. In this episode we talk about finding his love for guitar and music, moving away, coming into his own as an adult, not making excuses, Hawaiian culture, and so much more. Enjoy!
