Kaʻau Crater Boys were a Hawaiʻian Contemporary musical duo comprised of Ernie Cruz, Jr. (vocals, guitar, bass) and Troy Fernandez (ukulele, vocals). They recorded and released four popular Hawaiʻian Contemporary albums:
- Tropical Hawaiian Day(1991)
- Valley Style (1993)

Their work garnered them three prestigious Na Hoku Hanohano awards from The Hawaii Academy of Recording Artists.
The name Kaʻau Crater Boys refers to Kaʻau Crater, an extinct volcano above the Palolo Valley of Oahu, near to the Palolo housing community in which Cruz and Fernandez were raised.
