He continues to explore and expand the horizons and possibilities of electro-acoustic multi-ethnicity. Hayes has a passion for acoustic instruments – both their sound and their heritage. Live, the instruments become as much the performer as Hayes, accompanied by an amplified percussive foot board of his own design.
