"How Can You Live With Yourself" for FREE here !!!!
Hailing from Sydney’s Blue Mountains, blues and roots solo artist Claude Hay is a rarity in today’s musical landscape; laying down a modern version of what, in another age, would have been called a one man band. Claude fuses slide guitar, sitar, bass and electronic percussion in a loop-driven edge-of-the-seat live show that invokes the best of stomping trad blues with funk-dance edge that is making people’s ears stand up and take notice.
Claude Hay’s independently released debut album “Kiss the Sky” (2007) was the ticket he needed to perform at venues and festivals all over the world, including in the UK, Europe and the US on stages famous for giving the likes of Springsteen, Joplin and Hendrix a foot in the door.
“One of the most visually exciting blues players I’ve seen, I can’t believe he does all those sounds live” – Drew Wanjert, CEO, Phanphest, New Jersey, USA
Back home Claude’s unique talents have been doing the rounds with some of the rising stars of the Aussie roots scene including The Fumes, Ash Grunwald, Marshall and The Fro and Chase The Sun to name just a few. He’s been seen treading the boards at The Blue Mountains Festival, Peats Ridge, Newtown, Gumball and Surry Hills Festivals and tracks from “Kiss The Sky” have graced the airwaves via Triple J, Triple M, FBi and independent radio stations worldwide.
November 2009 sees Claude Hay release a new single “How Can You live With Yourself”, a funky feat of ambidexterity detailing the atrocities of super cheap printers that are destined for landfill one day after their warranty has expired. Unlike most office equipment Claude Hay is one artist who’s likely to be around here for a long time to come.

"DJ Monkey …soul-stirring, excitingly edgy music…just disturbing (read ‘mind-f**king’) enough to demand attention. There is a whole spice rack of auditory flavors here, served up like fractured poetry on a collection of intensely listenable Hallmark cards from Hell." Bill Margold, Cinema Seen, L.A.
