alona tupanephi

n the warm breeze of the Hawaiian islands, where the ocean hums a sacred melody, Alona Tupanephi found her voice. Born and raised in a family that cherished the gospel, she grew up understanding that true peace wasn’t just in the waves, but in the walls of the temple. From a young age, she was captivated by its beauty—not just the architecture, but the holiness inside. While other kids were memorizing pop lyrics, Alona was singing about keeping her heart pure and her mind focused on Christ.

With a voice as smooth as island honey and harmonies that could part the clouds, Alona made it her mission to help others prepare for the temple’s blessings. Her songs aren’t just music—they’re roadmaps to higher living. She sings about keeping thoughts clean, walking in holiness, and striving to have the Spirit as a constant companion. For her, worship doesn’t start at the temple doors; it starts in the heart.

Now a wife and mother of six, Alona cherishes the promise of eternal family, knowing that through Christ, those bonds will never break. Between school drop-offs, family home evening, and attending the temple, she still finds time to create music that uplifts and inspires. When Jukebox Saints Records heard her sing, they knew she wasn’t just another R&B artist—she was a soul-stirring messenger of the gospel. Signing with the label was a no-brainer.
