Keys of Creation's hit "Heart of Polynesia" is just the kind of anthem I love to turn up on Q103 (Happy B-day, BTW!), when curling my way down from Kula on Kekaulike Avenue. How can you not love a sweet, rootsy chant to "live up Polynesia," while in sightline of our own bi-coastal blessing? Makes me feel all revolutionary and stuff—stoking hope for some great, future Pacific peoples' collective. Beyond their lyrics, Keys of Creation's members themselves speak to the diversity needed to achieve such harmony. Front man Iakopo is a Cali kid raised in Samoa (which I'll divulge personal sentimentality towards, my mom being of the same uncommon rearing), and backing his vocals are Poly poi dog bandmembers Chris (drums), Lil Dread (bass), Kainalu (keys) and Justin (guitar). But I digress… I'm preaching to the choir, aren't I? As entrenched as reggae is here in the 808, you'd be as hard pressed to find someone who doesn't much care for the band's sound as you will be to find parking at the Casanova show. So if you see me cruising the roads headed that way, give me a wave; maybe we can carpool. 572-0220, Casanova
