Edwina Hayes performing at Hove House Concerts

Edwina Hayes

We first saw Edwina when she supported Fairport Convention on their annual winter tour and were impressed by her beautiful voice, warm personality and terrific mix of covers and original material. She turned our front room into her front room and made everyone feel like a friend, right from the get-go. She was smart and funny, her merchandise stand came with no prices – but an honesty box – and she played our favourite Nanci Griffith song, It’s A Hard Life. Seek her out if she’s playing near you. Edwina Hayes’ website.
