• Ten years have elapsed since the release of From the Valley to the Throne, Ata's beloved first collection of gospel hymns.  Somewhere Up Ahead continues his family's legacy of hymns that Ata learned in childhood under the tutelage of his mother, Gwen, and maternal grandfather, the Rev. Alfred “Papa” ChuHing.
  
  
• Support from Ata's friends and fellow musicians – Ahumanu (Liz Morales & Joni DeMello), Kaiolohia Funes Smith, and Cody Pueo Pata – underpins and sustains Ata's glorious vocals and inspired musicianship.  The resulting mix of talent will please devotees of Hawaiian music as well as those who find inspiration in faith-based music. 
  
  
• The CD package includes Jens Skolleborg's charming pen and ink drawings of scenic Maui churches and the story of each song as it relates to Ata and his family.
