Synopsis

Album Description
The Hula Honeys bring you the music of Waikiki's golden era, charmingly updated with a light air of contemporary Hawaiian jazz and five original songs. Life Just Got Sweeter when veteran musicians Ginger Johnson, Robyn Kneubuhl, Jeff Costello and Cliff Collins decided to join their considerable talents and fondness for Waikiki-era music. Indeed, Life Just Got Sweeter when they decided to make this album. Life Just Got Sweeter delivers a special dollop of honey with legendary songstress Emma Veary singing her signature song "I'll Weave a Lei of Stars for You" with daughter Robyn. Life Just Got Sweeter is for everyone who enjoys vintage and contemporary Hawaiian music performed with elegance, spirit, and aloha. As one industry insider opined, "This is the music people come to Hawaii to hear!"
 

CD Reviews

Sweet as Honey!!
planetmango | Chico, CA | 10/31/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD is a little jazzy, and as sweet as can be. It truly conjures up that 1950's Waikiki era when Hawaiian music was one of the most popular styles worldwide. And these gals have captured that style exquisitely! Wonderful vocal harmonies and great choices of "Hapa haole" standards (songs with some English lyrics that are truly Hawaiian at heart). Plus they have written some very nice original music, as well. This CD is like a trip back in time to a Waikiki Hawaiian Paradise."
I wanna go back

"Life gets sweeter everytime I liston to this CD. The Hula Honeys nailed it. "All Pau Now" makes me feel about 30 years younger than I am and "Little Grass Shack" just makes me want to be there. The harmonies are fantastic and Robyn has a voice that could make the angel's weep. If you are at all nostalgic for those days when you could still find a place to throw your towel on the beach at Waikiki, this is for you."

"Real nice CD to add to my "paradise" collection. Great voices, a little jazzier than the others."
