If I could do something with Paul McCartney it would be just amazing. Or Eric Clapton.

When you go into the studio or get up on the stage with people who have more experience or knowledge, you learn.

I still believe that music is healing to some extent.

The ukulele has always appealed to the older generation.

The ukulele totally fits that whole hipster community or whatever you want to call it, but then at the same time it works great in nursing homes where senior citizens get together and play, and then as the traditional Hawaiian instrument with people doing the Hula and strumming the ukulele and singing.

Growing up, the ukulele was always a respected instrument. It's a big part of our culture. It wasn't until I started traveling outside of Hawaii that I realized people didn't really consider the ukulele to be a real instrument.

Now I know what a dulcimer is supposed to sound like.
