Hawaii (band)
Hawaii was an American heavy metal band formed in 1981 by former Deuce guitarist Marty Friedman, originally called Vixen (not to be confused with the 1980s female band of the same name). Vixen recorded several demos and appeared on the ''U.S. Metal Vol. II'' (1982) compilation album, before releasing the ''Made In Hawaii'' EP in 1983. Another early recording appeared on ''Metal Massacre II'' (1982) under the name Aloha, with Lisa Ruiz taking over lead vocals from Kim La Chance. After Hawaii split up, Marty Friedman formed the band Cacophony with Jason Becker; bassist/vocalist Gary St. Pierre joined Vicious Rumors as lead vocalist on their 1985 debut album ''Soldiers of the Night''.
