To recap, the month of June was quite a roller coaster ride. First of all, my very first full-length ukulele instrumental album, "From His Heart," was a final nominee for the
Na Hoku Hanohano Awards (Hawaii's version of the Grammy Awards) in the Best Instrumental Album of the Year/Best Instrumental Performance category. Secondly, I performed live in Las Vegas at Caesars Palace for VIP Executives and music artists from all over the world. The event was a highly recognized and well-respected music conference called
Music Strategies 2010. Lastly, I performed the National Anthem and two "inning-intermission" showcases for
Major League Baseball's Arizona Diamondbacks. There were more than 24,000 fans in attendance at that game. That experience was by far the biggest stage and best experience in my musical journey!
In addition, I am more than honored to announce that I have been internationally selected as
ARTIST OF THE MONTH (June) from the makers of the best acoustic transducers in the world,
FISHMAN!
I sincerely thank you and your extended family and friends who have supported me along the way. Also, if I may, I apologize if I have not returned emails or phone calls in a timely manner. I have been swamped lately negotiating and investigating possible worldwide opportunities. I am now assembling a team that will enable me to be more efficient and effective. Take care and I will continue to keep you posted. Aloha and God Bless!
