Music video official release!

Following a heralded performance at the 2013 Tiki Oasis festival in San Diego, CA, The Hula Girls decided that they just HAD to record a pair of songs that were received especially well! It has taken a little longer to get this out to you than we planned, but here it is! We were originally going to press a two-song vinyl 45, but with the amount of time that this has taken, we figured that we ought to just get you a digital version right away. 

We ALSO filmed a video for one of the songs! 
Hope you dig it!!


(Be sure to select 1080p HD from the settings option on youtube)




You can buy the tracks at CDBABY, now!


“Hula, Hula! Bang, Bang!”, a never before heard song, got the whole crowd singing along. It’s a fast paced bopper about a seemingly sunny dispositioned beach girl who ends up being a vampy night-time temptress when you really get to know her. The simple, catchy chorus is infectious!

“Rock Around the Island” is a cover of the 1956 song by The Lancers, from southern California. This song was featured in the hit film, “The Lieutenant Wore Skirts.” It’s a wild bopper which is one of the earliest true rockabilly recordings that venture into what we refer to as that ‘hulabilly’ sound!
