Description
The album Hawaii was described by bandleader Sean O'Hagan as blending influences from post-mid-European Stockhausen-era music with the West Coast sound of the Wrecking Crew. Critics have noted its homage to Brian Wilson's arrangements on Pet Sounds, featuring lush vocal harmonies, melodic instrumentation, and diverse influences like Henry Mancini, mariachi music, and Hawaiian guitars. A potential collaboration between O'Hagan and Wilson was considered after the album's release but never materialized.
