Product Description

Perhaps one of the most popular songs about Hawaii. This arrangement is for Medium Voice and Ukulele or Guitar. A happy song with a lively tempo and cool harmonies.

The Hawaiian music craze began at the Hawaiian Pavilion at San Francisco's PanamaPacific International Exposition in 1915. The music craze was responsible for the the biggest sale of ukeleles in history.  Sears Roebuck bought the Harmony guitar company to make ukuleles and cashed in on the craze.  It has been has been covered dozens of times by celebrity artists world wide, and has been heard in many movies and television shows. It has been called one of the "50 Greatest Songs of Hawaii".

The "little grass shack" of the title does not refer to a real location. The popularity of the song led to the opening of a gift shop in Kona called "The Little Grass Shack. The song was so popular that soldiers stationed in Hawaii during World War II who were not allowed to write letters home,  instead sent photographs of themselves in front of the gift shack, to let their families know where they were!

Learning and accompaniment tracks are availabel free from the arranger at AAR@prodigy.net
