The album was recorded at Seventh Wave Production Studios in Honolulu. Producers and co-producers include Pe’a, Dave Tucciarone and Allan B. Cool. Guest artists include Imua Garza, Dave Tucciarone, Kenneth Makuakane, Roddy Lopez, Alden Kai‘aokamalie (Pandanus Club), Amy Hanaiali‘i, Kimie Miner, Kalenaku, Ikaika Blackburn, Reggie Padilla, Aiau Koa, Wailau Ryder, Nalei Pokipala, Aron Nelson, Daniel Del Negro, Larry L. Kauanoe Kimura, Kalehua Simeona and Frank Kawaikapuokalani Hewett.

Kau Ka Peʻa takes listeners on a voyage that defies boundaries between eras and genres, with seven original compositions and four fresh takes on the classics.

Born and raised in Pana‘ewa, Pe‘a began singing at age 4 to address a childhood stutter. His natural talent was subsequently recognized in singing competitions, and it has brought him to the forefront of Hawaiian music today.
