Natalie along with her husband Iolani became part of a group called "Sunland" along with Chad Guerrero and Claudia Vazquez.

They would have several hits from the "Eruption" CD - "We Are Only Human" and "Juliet".
With cultural and musical differences and questions about financing, Natalie and 'Iolani broke from the group to musically make their own way again.
Hula was always a part of Natalie; but it wasn't long before Natalie began shining solo in the spotlight again. Many among the hula community and Hawaiian music fans proclaimed, "Finally!" when Natalie Ai Kamauu's solo release "'E," arrived. It would win her the title of 2006 Female Vocalist of the Year at the Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards.
With the release of her second recording, `I, her fans find a different faceting of her love for music and hula with her signature sweet voice, strong spirit and playful heart. A true musical gem, with husband, Iolani, on vocals and instrumentation, you will fall in love with all that is Hawaii as her voice brings clarity and color to Hawaiian music today.
