posted: 8/14/2008 - 
Honolulu, Hawaii based One Right Turn (ORT) played their first show on the US Mainland at Stern Grove in San Francisco, California to over 10,000 people this past Sunday, August 10th. One Right Turn is comprised of Sisters Connie Cruz and Tiffa Cruz-Garza along with Tiffa's husband Imua Garza, formerly of the successful Island Rhythm group Opihi Pickers. One Right Turn's 30 minute set received lively audience response as they introduced the near capacity crowd to original songs from the four upcoming ORT CD's.
"One Right Turn" - "Lean On My Shoulder" / "Connie" / "Tiffa" / "Imua" and a box set of all four CD's called "Ohana" will be in stores and online Tuesday, October 14th. "Imua, Connie & Tiffa have unique voices and styles of their own that when combined produce a fourth unique style, so we decided to release a group CD along with a solo CD by each member simultaneously." "I don't know of any other group having attempted this before, but with over 250 originals between the three members and the fun they were having in the studio it just made sense." - Warren Wyatt, President, WorldSound
One Right Turn further wowed the Bay area crowd when they were joined on stage by famed Hawaiian singer-songwriter and brother / brother in law Ernie Cruz Jr. ORT was performing at Stern Grove in San Francisco as part of "One Hawaii" a historic gathering of groups from Hawaii that included Ernie Cruz & Kaukahi and was headlined by Na Leo Pilimehana.
