In Hawaiian, the word Akamai means "witty," "clever," or "intelligent." The music of Akamai Brain Collective brings together the wisdom and musical know-how of three Hawaii locals raised in the Islands, but schooled at two of the world's finest music schools: New England Conservatory and Berklee College of Music.

Fusing elements of jazz, blues, exotica, latin, classical and pop, Abe Lagrimas, Jr. (20), Randy Wong (22) and Eric Lagrimas (26) create a fresh style of music they call "progressive island jams".

Abraham Lagrimas, Jr:
