I agree with JaiJai. The Jazz Network has made me more keenly aware that there are lots of artists, musicians, writers, producers and fans into Jazz that I could have imagined. Nothing is more noble than being recognized by one's peers. In 2003, I…

Tell us a little about your background...
I can't imagine the World without Jazz.

I want more Jazz Artists to come to Honolulu. I appreciate what Norman Brown, Kenny G, Dave Koz and my Frat Brother, Ramsey Lewis "Legends of Jazz" are doing to ensure our communities are acculturated to Traditional and Smooth Jazz.

Honolulu lost its' Jazz radio station about 20 years ago. Some say, Honolulu was not sophisticated enough. We now have KORL 101.1 FM on satellite and KIPO 89.3 FM (Public (HPR)) with Don Gordon. Even in view of the current economic situation, businesses are beginning to advertise, which will provide another resource for the getting word out about Smooth Jazz events. Further thanks to Johnny Myro, David Booth, Michael Paulo and Roy Dakerman and all the die hard Hawaii Jazz fans.

Winton Marsalis, Rick Bruan, Larry Carlton, Dave Brubaker, Chuck Mangione, Earl Klugh, Lee Rit have all performed with the Honolulu Symphony or at the "Guitar Under the Stars" venue. This venue has since stopped. We have smaller venues and could accommodate two shows for artists performances. Jazz artists are bypassing Oahu and going to Maui. But, with the right venue (liquor and food), Honolulu is primed and hungry for smooth jazz.

I believe Jazz/Smooth Jazz is sophisticated, classy, and a positive cerebral stimulant that attracts some of the most wonderful people inside and out.

I am a Songwriter/Musician/Producer all genres. Primary instrument Piano. YuuKenGoh Music (BMI).

I have a very passionate approach to songwriting. First, I write from the heart. I hear a sound or groove in my mind, and then I try to craft those sounds and rhythms into an emotion. In my music you will hear influences from many artists, such as, Joe sample, Bob Baldwin, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, George Duke, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Ronnie Jordan, Bob James, Larry Carlton, George Clinton and Prince. Other favorite artists are Tony Toni Tone, Earth Wind and Fire, Dave Hollister, Will Downing, George Benson, Jill Scott, R Kelly and Teddy Riley.

I don’t believe Jazz, traditional, modern or smooth, however you classify it, is cooked up from theory. Jazz is not how many sub dominants, tritones or chord-degrees one can write in a song. To me it’s the same persona that separates an engineer from a physicist or painter from the canvas maker. Without the creative impulse, energy and ideas the music is nothing but organized theory.

When I first learned about the Jazz Network I thought it was a fabulous idea.  The reality has more than lived up to my expectations.  I am constantly learning about new artists from all over the world who play many different styles of jazz.  I've made new friends, run into old friends and learned about new venues and ways to promote my career and new releases.  It has been such a friendly and welcoming experience that I was delighted to take advantage of this opportunity to be featured on the Network.  Thank you Jaijai and everyone who has chosen to participate in the Jazz Network!

Seldom do you meet a person who impresses you with both brilliance and kindness. Recently, I met such a person. Her name is Jaijai Jackson. I was drawn to her like a moth drawn to a flame. Her love of music is highly spiritual and her understanding of the business is remarkable. After many years in the music business, it is refreshing to meet someone like her.

Historians will research our arts to characterize our culture in the future. Contributions by those who tirelessly support our significant art forms will help to define us. Jaijai has become a key ingredient toward that future and her importance to the jazz world cannot be overstated.

Her devotion to the music and passion for keeping it alive makes our world a better place. Jaijai, thanks for being you.
