Begun as a free bi-weekly newsprint magazine, Maui Time offered a combination of music, sports, arts and community features, as well as Maui's first true entertainment calendar. The paper was founded by Tommy Russo and Mark D'Antonio.

Russo noted the lack of a strong community-based publication while traveling on Maui. At the time he was completing degree studies at Chico State University building a strong sales background in print media during his employment with a local paper in Chico, California. He teamed up with classmate D'Antonio after D'Antonio's music group, Sunset Red concluded two tours of Lahaina in 1996. Within a year, the two Chico, California transplants moved to Maui to start an independent community publication. Maui Time established a free and independent voice to represent the wide variety of views, opinions and lifestyles.

Publisher Tommy Russo grew Maui Time into a weekly publication with Maui news, community features, arts and entertainment as its focus. Maui Time gained admission into the Association of Alternative Newsweeklies in 2004.
