  • Yes, you can have it all!..
    author: Scott Douglas Laxier

    Dayan Kai's First 12 Years is a journey, best taken at your leisure and multiple times. Profound yet humorous, witty and heartfelt, Kai gives us a peek into his considerable bank experiences and thoughts, keeping the music in the forefront always. His music will have you tapping your foot, dancing a wicked two-step, reflecting on the various ideas he presents, laughing wryly at the paradox of our lives, all the while smiling joyfully, knowing you are listening to works of great consideration and passion. The First 12 Years rarely leaves my rotation! A collection of music that really does have it all...
