HAYDEN
Fresh off a sold-out theatre tour of his native Canada, Galesburg and
Strange News are very pleased to bring back Indie-Folk artist Hayden to
New Zealand for two very special and intimate performances. Hayden's music
combines elements of rock and folk, along with disturbingly personal
sentiments and a voice that channels both the falsetto highs of Neil Young
and the wavering raspy low tones of Leonard Cohen.
Here's a sample of some of the praise Hayden has received from the World
Press:
THE ONION/NEW YORK
"Hayden draws from the traditions of eccentric folk-rock, but his ragged,
harrowing concoction of acoustic gentility and electric anarchy stands as
a genre all its own."
MOJO - GOLD SEAL OF APPROVAL ("a release of exceptional quality")
"The album's unequivocal genius slaps you upside the head. Everything
about this record - musicianship, songcraft, lyrics - is superior."
ALTERNATIVE PRESS
"A little bit country, a little bit rock 'n' roll, Hayden crafts each song
like a musical photograph---scenic, colourful and keenly observant".
HARP
".an artist of remarkable depth and potential, becoming someone who
inspires comparison rather than invites it".
TIME OUT/LONDON
"Lovely, cracked, off-key vocals, winsome melodies and brilliant lyrics".
Tickets are $25 + bf and on sale now through Slowboat Records (Wellington)
and Real Groovy (Auckland)
