Product Description
On the eve of the break-up of one of Hawaii’s favorite local music groups comes the
release of Greatest Picks: Best of the Opihi Pickers.
This impressive and long overdue release features all the original Opihi Pickers' hit recordings
all on one amazing collection plus, as a special bonus, two brand new Opihi Pickers
songs chosen just for this release.
“Old Fashioned Touch”, “You’re All I Need”, “Our Love Is Divine”, “My Melody”, “Victim”,
“Beautiful Ladies”, the list goes on and on of songs that have not only been heard all over
local Hawaii radio, but songs that have also inspired a new generation of musicians
to pick up the ukulele and play music.
The two brand new songs are sure to stand out among the classics. “Brighter Day”, an optimistic
look to the future, is pure Opihi Pickers with an up-tempo feel, positive message, bright
harmonies and signature ukulele lines.
On the new song “Solo Flight” Imua Garza sings of a journey he feels that he must take on
alone even though it means leaving the solid ground that he currently knows behind.
Since their early teens, the boys of the Opihi Pickers – Imua Garza, Hoku Garza, Kahale Morales
and Kevin Okimoto – were seen growing up in the public’s eye all while making some of the
most memorable hit music in local radio history. 2008 marks their tenth anniversary as recording
artists having now released seven CDs during their career.
