Review

Daniel Ho once again stretches his creative muscle by showcasing his vocal talents on Coolest Drop of Rain, which is the 18th album released by this internationally-renowned artist. This acoustic alternative CD marks the first all-vocal performance by Ho, who is best known as a multi-instrumentalist/composer.

"It has been a dream of mine to perform and sing," explains Ho, who is a self-proclaimed fan of music legend James Taylor. "It is empowering to finally explore and express this newest facet of myself."

In typical Daniel Ho style, listeners will be exposed to different musical disciplines and varieties on this 12-song album. In addition to performing the lead vocals, Ho played the `ukulele and guitars on all tracks, drums on "Suncatcher,' and bass on "What Am I To Do." A couple of the album's most outstanding songs include "Suncatcher" and "Coolest Drop of Rain" - playful but soulful ballads that are sure to capture the hearts (and ears) of many. A music video of the album's title track will be filmed on the West Coast this summer.

Dean Taba and Randy Drake, both of whom are Ho's bandmates from Kilauea, also contributed their own amazing talents to this latest project. This album introduces Skyler Blue, which combines the soothing voices of Siena Lee and Denise Tajiri. The duo performed background vocals on "The Best That I Can," "Love Is Not Love," "I Am Invisible," and "What Am I To Do."

Daniel Ho has produced, arranged, composed, engineered, and/or performed on 50 records ranging in musical diversity including pop, smooth jazz, contemporary Hawaiian music, and local alternative spanning his 12-year career. From 1990 to 1997, he was the leader, keyboardist, producer, and composer for the contemporary jazz group, Kilauea. This accomplished artist has performed throughout the U.S., Mexico, Japan, and Germany and attained national recognition when two records reached Billboard's top ten and two songs hit number one on R&R's (Radio & Records) National Airplay® charts. Ho has also received numerous industry honors, including two coveted Na Hoku Hanohano awards for Religious Album of the Year in 2000 and Song of the Year in 2001 for "Saving Forever."
