Product Description
Ten Feet began as a "back-yard" group, but soon
graduated to playing small clubs. Early on
in their career, they were searching for a name when a friend suggested
Ten Feet. When asked
why, the friend responded that the group had five members, each with two
feet.... so Ten Feet
it was! By 1997 they were playing larger venues, including the Waikiki Shell,
where they
opened for the late Israel Kamakawiwo'ole at the Jammin Hawaiians Concert.
After spending four years performing and building a fan base, Ten Feet finally
went into the
recording studio. Their first hit song, "Island Feeling" made
it's premiere November 1999 on the
Reggae music compilation, "Roots Reggae Vol.2” (Quite Storm Records
/ Universal Records),
and became a smash hit in the islands, topping listener request charts at
many local radio stations.
Island Feeling debuted on Bill Boards magazines rank #15 in the Independent
Record Category
and #26 in the Heat Seakers Category and most impressively ranked #3 in
the World Music
Category which is one of the highest ranking ever given to a local band.
In an effort to satisfy
the appetite of fans waiting for the release of their full length CD, the
song "Islands in the Stream"
was released earlier in the year 2000. It too became a smash hit and only
added to the demand
for the full length CD.
Ten Feet has continued their success performing on the mainland at “The
House of Blues”
and “Paramount's Great America theme park Amphitheatre”. They
were voted the most requested
band in Saipan, bringing out crowds of over 10 thousand people for their
Independence Day
Celebration. Ten Feet took home four Hawaii Music Awards for the following
categories: Song of the
Year, Group of the Year, New Artist of the Year and Best Album of the Year.
Na Hoku Hanohano
award winners for "Contemporary Album of the Year", time and to
make sure that everyone else does too.
They are currently finishing up a second album, which will consist of original
music and
some cover songs. “Warriors”, was written for the University of
Hawaii Athletic teams. June Jones,
head coach of the University of Hawaii Football team has recently endorsed
it as the team anthem.
The CD is titled Island Feeling “Part II”.
