and winner of many Grammys

on Jamie's solo albums
George Kahumoku Jr., multiple Grammy winner, musician, storyteller, composer, teacher, author,
cook, farmer... truly, Hawaii's Renaissance Man - the embodiment of the spirit of aloha Mahalo, Uncle George, for everything!
Ozzie Kotani, without doubt, is someone I count on as an inspiration. An amazing
slack key guitarist who encourages me to do even more! (And he let me sit there and play his dobro for hours.)

pull' style. As a solo performer, he's often accompanied by Jamie - the two of them are part of Fanai and Geese in the Bog

promotes music at many levels: concert series, Internet radio, Big Island Awards... just take a look to see all he does

Old Homestead Studios - Gary Mackender is an excellent musician and an easy-to-work-with
recording engineer. I've record album tracks with him and lots of demos - wish I could work more, especially because he's also
a great percussionist and keyboard player - a good guy, all round!
