Chase Kauhane is a Songwriter and Big island native. Hailing from Waimea town, he now lives outside of Nashville Tennessee as he pursues his craft and navigates the music industry.
Chase is a multi-faceted songwriter, blurring the lines between genres. His songs have been recorded by triple platinum artist, Sonny Sandoval and Grammy nominated Hawai'i artist, Kimie Miner.

When Chase isn’t writing songs for others he writes songs for himself under the artist name Olelo.
"The music that he creates, it always comes from a personal place. There's an element of honesty in everything he does, that people react to."
-Grammy Award Winner, Charles Michael Brotman
"Writing with Chase is always a pleasure. He is one of the most talented songwriters. He's just very gifted with melodies/lyrics."
-Nitanee Paris, ArtistMax, CEO
"I think Chase is amazing. I can tell you the experience for me of having somebody in the room so focused on writing lyrics and melodies and that's what they live and breath, is this really unique experience."
-Brian Hall, Bright Basement Records, Founder
“We’re songwriters first, and artists and performers second.”
- Chase Kauhane, Big Island Music Magizine
