Mark Keali'i Ho'omalu
In 2002 two of my songs, "Hawaiian Rollercoaster" and "He Mele No Lilo," were featured on the film and soundtrack for the Disney movie Lilo and Stitch.
After a final performance in February 2002 with my halau, I closed the doors of Na Mele Hula Ohana. Later that year I started a new halau, the Academy of Hawaiian Arts in Monterey, CA. In February 2003 I opened the Bay Area division of the Academy in Oakland.
On April 15th 2003, I released Call it What You Like (Mountain Apple Record Company, Honolulu, HI), the followup CD to my 1999 release, Po'okela Chants. Call it What You Like charted in Hawai'i and earned a spot among the top 15 releases on Billboard's World Music category.
