Ann Hoku Lyn Love Rebel

On February 14th, Hawaii trumpeter, composer and recording artist Ann Hoku Lyn hit again with her newest release "Love Rebel," a reggae song with a timely message that features collaborations with other local female artists Moni and Binti Bailey. "Love Rebel" honors Hoku Lyn's island roots and features her skills as a trumpet player. It is the 4th single she has released that will be featured on her upcoming album, and the release is accompanied by a full-length Music Video released on the same day. The song was created out of her personal experience of choosing to respond to hatred with love, and was produced to encourage people to rebel against the systems that seek to divide us.

The music video was shot in Hoku Lyn's recording studio, and at several remote locations around the Big Island, and features stunning images of the island as well as cameos by other local musical artists and DJ's, and was directed, filmed, and edited by Timo Gomez of One Wave Productions.

"So often we we think we are being rebellious yet we are doing exactly what the system wants.. we are fighting each other, instead of fighting for each other," says Hoku Lyn. The single is available on all digital streaming platforms, and the video is available on YouTube.

Ann Hoku Lyn will be performing this song along with other hard-hitting, unreleased songs from her forthcoming album as she headlines the Kona Brewer's Festival in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii on Saturday, March 12th, and at a special one-night-only Love Rebel Concert on Thursday, March 24th at the Kahilu theater in Kamuela, Hawaii, which will also be live-steamed via KahiluTV.
