"Antique Aloha: 2 That Hula Jazz" Special Edition CD PRE-ORDER is now available!

Enjoy a demo of the Hawaiian steel guitar classic Hilo March! It is featured on my forthcoming record Antique Aloha 2: That Hula Jazz.

I had posted this online in the past, but I noticed something went wrong in the sound on the YT export. And I never posted it here on the forum. So here it is!

I'm soliciting your advanced purchases now to help me finish the final steps. Your PRE-ORDER purchase helps me push past the financial hurdles of licensing, music mastering, and physical production to finish Antique Aloha 2.

The CD includes an instant download of the "What Hula Jazz?" E.P. a collection of some preview tracks that you can enjoy now while I finish the project. You can hear clips of those preview tracks on my website. And they are available instantly via download with your CD PRE-SALE purchase.

For my third solo multitrack project I've decided to return to the Antique Aloha repertoire and further explore that musical landscape. This time I'm really leaning into the Jazz, Vaudeville, and Novelty side of the repertoire even further. Of course the steel guitar will take center stage but I intend to feature a lot more solo ukulele than I did on the first Antique Aloha issue. And I may even include a guitar solo or two. Once again I'll play all the instruments that you'll hear on the album!

I've recently developed a deep appreciation for this style. Im not really familiar with the repertoire and the more obscure artists but I'm learning. I'm a big HSGA fan! It's players like you and Sebastian Muller that keep this music alive. I really like what your doing. Great backing band as well! I've got my pre order in and looking forward to hearing more!
