I few weeks ago I came across a great online-only station that operates out of
a small cabin in Talkeetna Alaska.
They are called Whole Wheat Radio and they play a lot of acoustic music with
the great majority being independent music.
It's one of the most interactive stations I have seen with requests taken (and
played pretty quickly) and a running chat going on, and the guy who runs it
does a great job, truly a labor of love.
They even have a song with Led Kaapana in it on their playlist (getting the
"hawaiian music" reference in).
Their URL is

Come join us in the chat, say hello! But be careful, you might get hooked once
you start listening.
Oh, before I forget, if you are an artist who would like some airplay to a
world-wide audience , the station is very much into receiving your music and
they will add you to their playlist. As an artist you can also track how many
times your music was played, how many times it was requested and how many
people heard the songs. They post your website and a contact email during the
time your song plays so you can get contacts and sell your music. They could
use Hawaiian music on this station to round things out and this would be a
great opportunity for you to branch out in a new way.
Here is more info on the station and it's philosophy as well as how to get your
music to them:

Just passing on a good thing.
