Hawaiian music is beautiful and simple.

Treasure, that is what you are

I've had big record label presidents look me in the face and say, 'Your music sucks, you don't know who you are, your music is all over the place, and we don't know how to market this stuff. Pick a lane and come back to us.'

'Doo-wop' is a very special word for me. Because I grew up listening to my dad who, as a Fifties rock & roll head, loved doo-wop music.

I know I'm probably much too late to try and apologize for my mistakes.

You know, my sister sings, my brother plays drums in my band. My whole family is a bunch of musicians.

I'm a big fan of songs like Joe Cocker's 'You Are So Beautiful' and Eric Clapton's 'Wonderful Tonight' - songs that go straight to the point.
