After making his name as a prime reggae-country innovator in his native Hawaii and surrounding Polynesian Island, Maoli is bringing his refreshing, distinctive style to Music City. The sun-soaked, rose-tinted ambience that Maoli laces into his music radiates throughout his latest release, ‘Yours Truly’, which finds the ‘Country Boy’ crooner serenading his lover with a flurry of sweet-nothings, donning the track a “love letter” to her.

Country Universe

The longest-running country music blog, Country Universe was founded on and remains committed to the fact-based notion that country music has never been the exclusive purview of artists who are straight, white, Christian, Southern, and (mostly) men. When focusing on either the genre's history or its present, CU takes a "big tent" approach to the broader country universe and believes that a foundation of empathy makes country music an essential part of our shared popular culture.
