Thomas "Tj” Fevella Jr. has always had a passion for music. Growing up in, music was a constant presence in his life, from impromptu sessions with family to fun karaoke nights. At just 19 years old, he was given life-changing opportunity by his Kumu hula (hula teacher) Cliff "Pali" Ahue, who hired him as a musician for Tihati Production at the Hyatt Regency Maui Luau. Since then, Fevella has been motivated to pursue a solo career in music, with the help of his friends and mentors like Josh Tatofi and Glenn Awong.
