They were performing at the Long Beach Airport (where I work) and their music definitely made working much more pleasant!
Response from Oléha:
Thank you Michael!
Oleha was awesome! Just the vibe we wanted and the guys were awesome to work with during the whole process. Very communicative and showed up on time. They looked and sounded great! Huge hit at the party and very happy we hired them to celebrate with our us - Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for live entertainment at their event.
Response from Oléha:
Thank you Mika! It was a pleasure performing for your father and family event!

Oléha specializes in performing fun, classy mood-enhancing music that ranges from fun and energetic, to romantic and thought-provoking. Audiences can expect feel-good Hawaiian ukulele + guitar instrumental fusion with an optional sprinkling of vocal renditions. We are perfect for creating ambiance that stimulates conversation and relaxation for dining / retail / networking, and can change it up to create dance vibes.
We are very easy to work with, professional and prioritize client satisfaction. Our music is original and does not require you to have special licensing for us to perform for your event/venue like a tribute/cover band would require.
As a live looping one-man band or duo, we create the tones of multiple parts to produce a full sound, similar to a full size band. With less musicians to manage, we require less coordination and maintenance, can dynamically adjust our performance to your needs, and take up minimal floorspace. Our pro-level audio gear can be battery operated to accommodate audiences of 300 people for up to 6 hours in remote locations that have no power.
Our performance needs:
- An hour to load-in, set up and sound check
- An hour to tear down and load-out
- A shaded area if performing during the day. We can bring our own tent if need be.
- Approximately 10' x 6' performance area for a duo performance, less for solo.
*We appreciate refreshments if offered. If not, we are happy to bring our own!
**Travel expenses are included in our quote outside a 15 mile radius.
***Flamenco focused performances are a premium rate.
