Its purposely lighter-fare arrangements make the album’s music the perfect backdrop for weddings, bridal showers, and retirement parties alike. All music on this album is newly-recorded and features the talents of WAITIKI’s many musicians—in combinations previously unheard or recorded. Produced by WAITIKI bandleader Randy Wong and violinist Helen Liu as a musical tribute to the great love songs of old Hawaii, the idea behind "Magic Island Sounds" was to create an album that they could use for processional and recessional music at their own wedding—and is thusly subtitled, "The Wedding Album." In addition to the talents of Wong (who provides the arrangements, original compositions, and upright bass playing) and Liu, the album's line-up includes flutist Tim Mayer, pianist Zaccai Curtis, percussionist Lopaka Colon, vibraphonist Jim Benoit, and multi-instrumentalist Abe Lagrimas Jr. (all of whom are members of the band's newest project, The WAITIKI All-Star Exotica Septet). Jazz vocalist Charles Morgan makes his WAITIKI debut as well. Purchase it today by visiting http://www.WAITIKI.com/Shop. All Major Credit Cards accepted.
