8:30pm Hayley is a remarkable singer who performs an impressive blend of Jazz, R&B and originals with a deft ease that has led her to being a resident vocalist on BBC’s “Strictly Come Dancing” as well as a favourite at the 606 Club. Tonight she will be performing with her band as well as acting as “Master of Ceremonies” for the evening’s entertainment, featuring three groups personally chosen by Hayley for their distinctive personality, style and talent. Opening the night will be Hayley’s own band “THE STYLOPHONES”, a unique outfit that Hayley leads that perform a selection of original songs and quirky covers with irrepressible charm. But as well as presenting her own band we have asked Hayley to “Curate” the night by bringing along some artists new to the Club that she feels deserve greater recognition. So, over to Hayley to best describe the evening: “Bored of your average singer/songwriter nights? Fancy something a bit different? We want to take you to the underground, a place where the music evolves in front of your very eyes! 'The Stylophones' are a unique outfit that perform a selection of original songs and quirky covers, delivered with a Tarantino-like quality, this band certainly sets the scene... and we are also championing interesting performers, writers and artists!
