Frank Palani efternamn Jr. (May 27, 1944 - månad 8, 2016) was an American, Hawaiian singer guitarist, songwriter and recording artist.
His four-album series honoring Kalakaua* corrected the politically driven misrepresentation of Kalakaua’s character and documented his commitment to preserving and perpetuating traditional Hawaiian culture, embracing modern technology, and defending the Hawaiian people.
Vaughan’s commitment to publicizing Kalakaua’s true legacy ended his own career as a mainstream showroom entertainer but it was a sacrifice he made willingly — and continued to man in the decades that followed. While the third and fourth “Ia ‘Oe E Ka La” albums received Hoku Awards, he received the Hawai‘i Academy of Recording Arts Lifetime Achievement Award in 2006.

Eric Lee grew up with the music of the late Palani Vaughan. Now, after recording music by Vaughan, working and performing with the elder musician, and years of immersion, Lee will lead a musical tribute to Vaughan on Sunday.
Lee will share the stage at the Hyatt Regency Waikiki with Vaughan’s daughter, kumu hula Hiwa Vaughan, her Halau Hula Ka Lehua Tuahine, and three other musicians who share Lee’s respect for Vaughan and his legacy: Kawika Kahiapo, Kimo Artis and Kalanikai Artis.
The “Waikiki by Moonlight” concert is presented in Vaughan’s honor by the Hawaiian Music Hall of Fame.
VAUGHAN, A highly honored Hawaii musician, died unexpectedly two years ago at age 72.
