Chi sono: Native Rhythms was originally conceived of in the early 1990’s. The concept was an outgrowth of my intrigue with the Polynesian and African influence on fashion, style and architecture in the 1940’s, 50’s and 60's, particularly in Southern California.
My idea was to blend the neo primitive designs and artwork of this period with a futuristic edge, and create a line of clothing which reflected this. I believe that our company’s slogan, “Primitive Designs for a New World” perfectly encapsulates this philosophy.
Currently, we are offering a limited number of original graphics on shirts, but we intend to offer a full range of clothing and accessories in the near future. Our designs are fun, whimsical and accessible to all ages. We feel that they convey the excitement, adventure and mystery of primitive cultures with the unlimited possibilities of the future. We hope you enjoy them!

Tiki Sighting! Keira Knightley sings Blue Tahitian Moon in the opening scene of "The Edge Of Love." Intense film about the torrid love triangle between the poet Dylan Thomas and his muses. The 1940's makeup in this movie was absolutely gorgeous.
"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)
"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
