This Hawaiian is absolutely amazing, he’s to the Ukulele what Bela Fleck is to the Banjo. He calls his instrument “an untapped source of music with unlimited potential.” We got this cd when he opened for Karl Denson; he has also performed with Bela Fleck. He was named Hawaii’s goodwill ambassador to Japan in 2004. -Pete
