Connolly Hayes
UK Blues Awards 2024 Emerging Act of The Year nominee ‘Connolly Hayes’, featuring vocalist Jess Hayes and singer/guitarist Frank Connolly, is already making serious waves on the UK blues/rock/soul circuit. Jess first emerged on the London scene as a precociously talented teenager and has gone on to impress all who have heard her, including all four judges on ITV’s “The Voice”! Her powerhouse vocals and confident and assured stage presence have done much to rapidly establish this exciting performer as one to watch. Frank Connolly is a singer/guitarist whose blues-tinged voice is complimented by his exceptional guitar playing, which is both fluent and creative. Individually these two young artists are impressive, together they are truly outstanding. Appearing tonight in their cut down trio format, alongside Joe Mac on keys, they will play original songs from their highly regarded 2024 debut album 'Remember Me' alongside selected covers (their take on 'Midnight In Harlem' has already attracted over 200k YouTube views!).
“With Connolly Hayes the British blues…scene has got another very nice…band and a hell of a singer” Bluestown Music
