Hayley Gaftarnick, is one of Leeds finest solo performers. An independent singer/song-writer who consistently creates outstanding music Hayley’s debut single ‘Turn To Stone’ has gained her a lot of well deserved credit. The song is about unrequited love.

Because for a sad old music geek like me, this week has been…

This brilliant device is the home made guitar amp, used on stage by Tsar Nicholas III & The Exiles. It was made from a vintage record box and it sounds lovely. The gig was a marvel too and I highly recommend you get to their next one. In the mean time in-between time check out this here video:…
