The Mākaha Sons of Ni‘ihau were a Hawaiian musical group. They originated on the leeward (Kona or westerly) side of Oahu. After the deaths of the Kamakawiwoʻole brothers, including nationally known Israel Kamakawiwoʻole, the remaining members dropped the "of Niihau" and now are known as the Makaha Sons, consisting of Louis "Moon" Kauakahi on 6-string guitar, John Koko on upright acoustic bass and Jerome Koko on 12-string guitar.
