Connolly Hayes Band

Connolly Hayes – the electrifying UK Blues Awards 2025 nominees for UK Band of the Year and Album of the Year – are turning heads internationally with their unforgettable fusion of blues, rock, and soul. This powerhouse group features five long-time friends Jess Hayes, Frankie Connolly, Beau Barnard, Joe Mac, and Andy Wilder.

Their debut album, ‘Remember Me’, released in the summer of 2024, was an instant hit, earning Pick of the Month honours from the Independent Blues Broadcasters Association. Just months later, they followed up with ‘Live at Echo Zoo Studios’, an EP that’s already capturing attention.

But the best is yet to come – the band is currently hard at work on their highly anticipated second album, set for release in Spring 2026.

With two of the most soulful voices in the business, virtuoso guitar and keys, and a rhythm section that grooves harder than anyone else, Connolly Hayes are building a reputation for unforgettable live performances.

If you haven’t caught them yet, now’s the time – trust us, you won’t want to miss the ride!
