sounds of the islands throughout the American Southwest and beyond. From the 1960s until late in his life, Ernie performed everywhere from Las Vegas and Lake Tahoe to Tucson, Phoenix, Los Angeles, Denver, Reno, and New Mexico, including residencies at legendary venues such as Harrah’s and Caesars Palace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"3187\" data-start=\"2919\"\u003eDuring the golden age of America’s fascination with Hawaiiana, Polynesian Pop, and Tiki culture, Ernie released seven LPs along with numerous singles.
