    BEAMER BROTHERS REUNION

    We'll remember how the Beamer Boys arrived in quick succession. Breckenridge Keolamaikalani Beamer was born on February 18, 1951. Brenton Kaponomalamalani Beamer was born on June 19, 1952. Winona Kapuailohia Desha Beamer now had two young treasures to share her culture with. Eventually, Keola and Kapono Beamer's Hawaiian contemporary music would successfully integrate ancient chants with modern arrangements during the Hawaiian Renaissance of the 1970s!
