Background notes
Archive material and source history
Aki Aleong formed The Nobles in 1963. The band worked with a mix of Polynesian rhythms and psychedelic rock, which gave them a particular sound that found an audience in Hawaii and beyond. Their 1964 song 'Hiawatha' became their most recognizable track, inspired by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's poem.
Some listeners and critics questioned whether The Nobles' approach to blending American rock with Hawaiian elements was appropriate. The band kept playing through those discussions, with Aki Aleong on vocals and guitar alongside members like David Choy, Danny Couch, and George Kanahele. They recorded several albums in the 1960s, including 'Na La Au E' and 'Tahitian Rose'.
