Artist Bio
Kolohe Kai stands as a pioneering force in Pacific Island reggae, blending island melodies, roots reggae, pop, and R&B into a sound that resonates across generations. Fronted by singer-songwriter Roman De Peralta, the Oahu-born artist has captivated audiences worldwide with heartfelt lyrics, smooth vocals, and an undeniable connection to the aloha spirit.
Since breaking onto the scene as a teenager, Kolohe Kai has amassed millions of streams, multiple Reggae Album of the Year awards, and a dedicated global fanbase. His signature hits, including “Ehu Girl,” “Cool Down,” and “Heartstrings,” have become anthems of island culture, while his recent collaborations and evolving sound continue to push the boundaries of the genre.
In 2025, Kolohe Kai embarks on his next chapter with the release of two powerful singles leading up to his upcoming full-length album, What Aloha Means. His January 24th release, “Day by Day” featuring The Green, showcases an uplifting, soulful collaboration with one of Hawaii’s most beloved reggae bands. Now, on April 4th, he follows up with the title track “What Aloha Means”, a deeply moving song that reflects the true essence of aloha—love, kindness, and connection. The track features the Kamehameha Schools Children's Chorus, known for their role in the classic Disney film Lilo & Stitch, bringing an angelic harmony that enriches the song’s heartfelt message.
To celebrate the release of What Aloha Means, Kolohe Kai is set to launch a nationwide amphitheater tour in Summer 2025, bringing his signature feel-good energy and message of aloha to fans across the U.S. The tour will span major cities, including New York, Chicago, Denver, Phoenix, and multiple California stops.
With a career spanning over a decade, Kolohe Kai remains one of Hawaii’s most streamed and beloved reggae artists. His commitment to spreading positivity, embracing his island roots, and creating music that inspires has solidified his place as a leading voice in contemporary island reggae. Whether through viral hits, award-winning albums, or electrifying live performances, Roman De Peralta’s mission remains the same—to share the meaning of aloha with the world, one song at a time.
