00:05Can you imagine your life without music?
00:09It's so much a part of my existence.
00:11I'd like to think that I could be a person without it.
00:14I'm not sure I could.
00:17Growing up in Hawaii, I really only wanted to be one thing, a professional musician.
00:22Getting to Grammys with Daniel, it's incredible, the journey that we've been on.
00:28The Grammy category and Best Hawaiian Music Album existed for seven years.
00:32Daniel won it in years two through seven.
00:37There was incredible backlash.
00:40He was born and raised in Hawaii.
00:43So he has this Hawaii connection and Hawaii background that is unquestionable,
00:47but he was questioned even more about what right did he have to be creating Hawaiian music.
00:56Our efforts were dismissed out of hand.
00:59Highly respected musicians saying, we were robbed.
01:03What was left unsaid was by those upstarts from LA.
01:07That's the tip of the iceberg.
01:09There's a lot of other things that happen.
01:12My dad has always framed life to me as a very long audition.
01:17He is in competition with himself all the time.
01:20It's a relentless pursuit of creativity.
01:24The guy doesn't stop.
01:26If you had a month where you were forbidden to work, what would you do?
01:31Daniel would go nuts.
01:33We're not related by blood, we're related by spirit.
01:37Daniel is such a wonderful musician and a joy to work with.
01:45Music in its simplest form is conveying emotion through sound.
01:53You don't need to play fast.
01:54You don't need to play loud.
01:55You don't need to sing high.
01:57None of those things really matter.
01:59If you can touch someone's heart with sound, that is music.
