Just to catch everyone up to date,Gabby Hayz is currently writing my material and recording demos as we speak. We are hard at work putting together songs for our 2nd cd which will be released in 2010.
The ideas are coming together well, and we think you'll really like what the results are when its done. Not to give too much away, but expect a much more straight forward, focused, and heavier disc this time around. It will be different from the first but if the recordings so far are any indication, this cd will sound alot more like us when you hear Gabby Hayz live. More in your face, more energy, more rocking and less filler. Stay tuned for more updates as the sessions progress along everyone!!!
Since MySpace is now allowing up to 10 songs instead of 6 as before,we've added 4 more tracks to the MySpace player from our gig at Kelly's Tavern, recorded on 5-16-08. One of them is the live version of "Self Help" while the other 3 are live covers including Clutch "Bottom's Up Socrates", Hendrix "Stone Free" and Lynyrd Skynyrd "Working For MCA" Let us know what you think!
Please mark down the dates for our upcoming shows, and make plans to come out and party with us. We now have at least 3 gigs booked for the next few months, incuding shows in Lafayette,Scott, & Baton Rouge. Check the upcoming shows section on the page for details & please check back often for updates!

Gabby Hayz tune played on New York radio station!
According to Michael Gowan, field manager for the AXECALIBER radio show at WITR-89. 7 FM in Rochester, NY, their station played "Sins & Signs" from the Gabby Hayz CD, Keepsake.
The email Michael sent said the band got very favorable reactions, and helped make it "absolutely one of the best shows we have done this year."
A big thanks to Big Electric Geno for playing our tune on the air ! ! !

Another song from Keepsake, "War Within," was played this past Tuesday (08-05-2008) on WITR-89.7 FM.
Keep On Rockin'.
Bands that have helped shape the direction of the music Gabby Hayz creates are vast and varied for all four members; some might be obvious while others are a bit more subtle. The influences of such heavy hitters as The Who, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and Rush are possibly quite apparent in many of Gabby Hayz' songs. However, there are many other players and bands that the members greatly admire and respect, all of whom add a hint of flavor to the mix as well - such as Robin Trower, Frank Zappa, Blues Traveler, Ian Moore, Tea Party, King's X, Sonny Landreth, Cheap Trick, Tool, Zebra, etc..
The combination of these great influences have inspired and allowed Gabby Hayz to make original music that displays their influences, yet still moves forward with fresh, new ideas. This has resulted in a wide palette of sounds and styles that include, among other things, both straight-up acoustic and celtic-flavored, folkish songs ("June 9th"); heavier, riff-based tunes ("Sins & Signs"); and bluesy slide jams ("Porchbored"). Various open and alternate tunings also give the music different timbres and voices ("Montague County" and "Little Ivy"). The result is the recently-recorded & released CD entitled Keepsake, (Available Now!!) that will prove there are other types of music still played in Louisiana besides just Swamp Pop, Cajun and Zydeco.
GABBY HAYZ: Keepsake
Check out our new CD. It's a diverse combination of musical influences culminating into a southern-flavored classic rock CD from the deep south of Louisiana.

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David
