Brian and Eric’s debut as a duo. Significantly entitled “Ke Ala Hou,” or “The New Path,” this recording was indeed a journey of new experiences and discoveries. Taking on the reins to self-produce and manage themselves, it was a path of uncertainty…and curiosity; a path of mystery…and evolution. “Ke Ala Hou” was nominated at the 1999 Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards for “Hawaiian Language Performance.”

Eric befriended Bruce (Jake’s younger brother) while traveling together in Japan with the O’ahu Visitor’s Bureau.  “The trip bonded everyone close together and Bruce and I stood in touch,” says Eric.  “I knew he was working on a solo project and I told him if he ever needed my help, don’t hesitate to ask.  I assumed that meant my guitar work, but when he called and told me he wanted me to sing as well, I was speechless!  When I found out that the song I was singing was the only song with vocals, with the exception of his bonus track, I couldn’t believe it!  He really has a nice voice, but he was very insistent on me doing it.  It was a real honor.”  Eric sings and plays guitar for Bruce’s composition, “Walk Me To The Stars.”

This was the pivotal point in the life of Ka‘ala Boys. “No Doubt About It” would be the last Ka‘ala Boys recording for both Eric Lee and Elton McKeague. Eric had to leave the band due to a conflict in daytime work schedules (actually, he was assigned to swing & graveyard shift, which fell right into gig-time). Elton became ill with cancer and has received the call to do exclusive performances for our Heavenly Father. The Ka‘ala Boys moved on with new guitarist Kawika Regidor and drummer Eric Folk and released two more recordings: “Can’t Get Enough” and “Hawaiian Style Live.” Sometimes Eric will come out to watch and support them…maybe even jump on stage for a song when they call him up. “We all miss Elton a lot. However, I believe that his passing has brought Keoki, Rodney, and myself a whole lot closer than we’ve ever been before,” Eric says. “I have a whole new respect for them, and they’re still kickin’ it on-stage!”

This was Ka‘ala Boys’ debut recording. The interesting thing about this quartet is that it consists of members from different aspects of music.

After The Kanile‘a Collection separated, Eric started to sit-in with other bands and play as a backup singer/musician whenever people needed him. It was one day Eric got a call from Kanilau to sit-in for one of their members who was out sick. Eric seemed to have fit in so well that bandleader Roland Chang invited Eric back on numerous occasions. When Kanilau returned to the studio to record their fourth CD, they invited Eric to play on one of their songs: “Beautiful Kahana.” Mahalo e Kanilau!

The Kanile‘a Collection (Jay Kauka, Brian Mersberg, & Eric Lee) debuted in 1993 at the annual Ka Hīmeni ‘Ana (a competition of non-amplified Hawaiian music). Although most of the group repertoire consisted of “jamming” songs, public feedback often came back as, “Oh, you folks so nahenahe.” Thus, the album’s title: “Nahenahe.” This album features guest performaces of Hālau Hula ‘Olana and Peter Moon (guitar duet with Eric Lee).
